GRAMMAR FUSS

OMG I AM GOING NUTS IN THE BUTTS. I HAVE BEEN WRITING GRAMMAR WORKSHEETS, LESSONS, AND QUIZZES FOR THE PAST TWO HOURS. THERE IS NO EASY WAY TO LEARN COMMA RULES. THERE IS NO EASY WAY TO TEACH THEM. I FEEL LIKE I AM STANDING AT THE WHITEBOARD WITH THE WORLD'S TINIEST ROCK HAMMER CHISELING AWAY. GETTING MY STUDENT WHO RECENTLY GOT A 10% ON A REMEDIAL TEST TO UNDERSTAND DEPENDENT CLAUSES IS. MY. DAVID!

EVERY TEN MINUTES I TAKE A BREAK BECAUSE I AM ACTUAL LOSING MY MIND WRITING AND REWRITING SENTENCES LIKE "BECAUSE CACTI GROW IN THE DESERT, THEY DO NOT NEED MUCH WATER." I KNOW THIS IS MY JOB AND JOBS ARE WORK, BUT IF I DO THE MATH I'M GETTING PAID LESS THAN TEN DOLLARS AN HOUR TO FORCE MIDPLACED MODIFIERS INTO THE FOREFRONT OF MY BRAIN AS IF THEY ARE ACTUALLY THAT IMPORTANT. MEANWHILE, ON MY BREAKS I LOOK UP ALL THIS THEATRE I WANT TO SEE AND I WONDER ABOUT IT AND WHO MAKES IT AND WHAT I DO AND THE ANSWER RIGHT NOW TO WHAT I DO IS I CREATE MULTIPLE CHOICE TESTS ABOUT CONJUNCTIONS.
