That annoying voice in the back of my head that starts whenever I have “free time.” It says, “You could be grading right now,” or “Are you sure that’s what you want to do tomorrow?” or “Is your lesson meeting standards and preparing them for the CSTs?”

And then it starts in on BTSA stuff. And then the anxiety begins.

I’m sitting on my couch watching TV because I’m too sick to be at school. And yet the voice continues.

I’m here right now. I know I need to take a break, and instead I’m sitting here feeling guilty about not doing schoolwork even though I know if I tried now, it would be disastrous. I hate teacher guilt.
