What happened?

...tried to show part of a movie first hour but no sound. Plan b guide student practice of new vocabulary. Ok. Was given second hour off due to extra sub. Maybe this benevolence is an apology? I take time to scan basic info from my sped students iep's. Found out that hour didn't behave for sub. Still no books for them. Fourth hour students came late bc of lock down while security looked for a stolen laptop. Lost time but did one side of worksheet. One student read jokes from her candy wrappers to the class while I tried leading the lesson. How can my lesson compete? No movie. Fifth hour students filled 38 desks then 5 more came. The teacher stayed in his room and was distracting. The 4 cheerleaders were all chatty at front of class. Students in back looked confused. We completed lesson then saw part of movie. A kind student went to find a tv vcr. There were a few minutes of relative peace and then the principal came in! What good timing. He wanted to see how many desks we needed. I will not hold my breath. 2 min before bell rang students tried to leave bc cell phones said it was time. I push my cart with 40 books and stuff thru halls to tiny office. I climb into room and unpack. I drive home and 40 min later arrive feeling light headed and physically drained. What else to do but lie down.
