So I had an idea for working with some of the kids at the school who I've always had problems with getting them to do tasks. I tried it today, and it worked! HAHA! Go me!!
Not entirely sure if it'll end up working in the long run, we didn't have much time today for me to try it out much. We went through one cycle and then field trip happened. But it did work the one time so I'm cautiously optimistic. We'll see how it goes moving forward. Fingers crossed.
So yes, field trip. To the local skating rink. Which I wasn't told for sure that I was going until I actually got to the school this morning. Oi.
Anyway I don't think I've actually owned a pair of skates in years, and I couldn't really lace them up even if I did, so I didn't go out on the ice. But I was there in the arena freezing my feet off because I didn't think to bring my boots because I am a moron. But there you go. Also I should have brought a hat, but I haven't been to the arena in years and forgot how cold it is in there. I are dumb, clearly.
Also we went in on the bus and I did not get sick. Even the nausea went away after a while since I distracted myself with Rainbow Loom. Apparently the toys I brought in for aforementioned idea have other purposes. Handy to know. Not sure if that'll ever come up again, but there you go.
I spontaneously socialized a lot today too. Not sure where that came from. Riding the high of a successful plan I suppose. Though I'm sure I'll be anxious over that soon enough. The fun never ends around here.
Also I watched The Theory of Everything and Big Hero 6 yesterday and they are great movies and OMG REDMAYNE!HAWKING IS ADORABLE AND OMFG BAYMAX THOUGH!!!!!!!!
So yeah, I recommend those two movies. And I'm still very much anticipating The Imitation Game. Also Mockingjay Part 1, Selma, and Penguins of Madagascar, because I am clearly nuts.

I only got about four hours of sleep last night
Just found the Vanity Fair issue with BC on the cover YAY SOBEYS!!!!!
Anyway, watched the Oscars last night. Second time I managed to get through an awards show with minimal muting to preserve sanity. Well done there. Sad that Benedict didn't get Best Actor (but he did a good job presenting, ja), but watching Eddie Redmayne's acceptance speech was amazing. The man is a dork, let's keep him.
Also Benedict and Sophie got married last week and they were both gorgeous last night and that selfie with her and his parents was adorable. And I just found a video clip of the two of them dancing at an after party and OH GOD MY HEART! Those two, though.
So yeah, four hours of sleep. Because I had to go in to work today, which was largely uneventful. Although we went outside for morning recess and the playground was basically solid ice. It was basically a skating rink, and very slippery. And also very entertaining. It was really quite fun. And no one got hurt, despite some of the children's best efforts. And that might have been why we didn't go outside for lunch recess.
And it was cold, which I didn't appreciate. It's supposed to get even colder overnight, so yay (though not really).
Went out and got The Theory of Everything today (and the second part of the first season of Sailor Moon, sometimes the local Wal-Mart gets it right), and I'm hoping to watch that tomorrow on the big TV if the living room is free. Or I'll just commandeer the other big TV and force my brother to watch it with me.
The Imitation Game is supposed to come out March 31 and I can't wait for that because I can't seem to convince myself to drive an hour away to the theatre to go see it. Maybe if it gets to the shafty theatre a half-hour away, though I can't really see that happening. Though one never knows.
