You Know You're a Teacher who Watches Breaking Bad When...

-You look at one of your class rosters, and when you see the name "Jesse" on it, you practice saying it in your best angry-Walt bark.

-You bump into one of the chemistry teachers in the hall and as you excitedly ask, "Do you watch-" they smile, cut you off, and say "Yes."

-When you find out a co-worker watches the show, you fangirl for a second before asking which episode they're on as not to accidentally ruin it for them.

-You comb through the names and faces in your 8th period senior study hall looking for the "Jesse Pinkmans."  They're easy to find- they're all huddled together, listening to music that's only slightly louder than the hoodies they're wearing.

-You wake up from a very detailed dream in which you and Saul Goodman are crawling around the floor of an old movie theater avoiding your husband's cousins- and you turn to Saul and say, "If they see us, just say you know me from high school."

Indy and I have watched all five seasons of Breaking Bad in about a month.  We have one episode left on Netflix, and then we're onto the second half of season 5 all stored up on our DVR- ready and waiting for us.

Our goal is to catch up so we can watch the very last episode live.

Let's hope Saul stays out of my dreams until then, at least!

  1. Oh my god oh my god oh my god. It is so hard NOT to talk about what happened on last night's episode! It trumps them all... Ozymandius, I can't imagine being in the school faculty room and having everyone talking about BB and having to leave to eat lunch in my room -alone - because I know someone will spill the beans and I don't want to hear the discussion. Catch up fast, please, I want to share!

    1. Girl! Indy and I did our fourth BB binge last weekend, and we're totally caught up! So many emotions!! I was literally crying and yelling as I watched the episode. Couldn't. Even. Handle. It!

    2. I could never watch more than 2 episodes in a row. I got too nervous, too upset, needed to calm down!
