Ha ha! I've managed to badger Miss Jack into letting me abuse my admin powers, so I'll assign you your prompt.
Your word prompt:
"You're not supposed to use it like that."

If I wanted to put it dramatically, I would say that I was in hell. Of course it wasn't true, I'd take hell over subbing a grade nine cooking class with a hangover any day. In my current zombie-like state, I couldn't even yell at Satan's little minions, yelling and running around and making my head pound. Not even my book could make me better, I couldn't focus on the words at all and had been on page thirteen, line five, for must have been twenty minutes by now. It was honestly taking all of my willpower not to have a nervous breakdown and run from the classroom laughing hysterically. Hangovers as a result of an excess of jagerbombs and peat monster scotch now ranked high on her never again list. Extra money via substitute teaching was right up there as well.
Looking across the room, I settled on staring at a particularly spastic group of students attempting to cook chicken tetrazinni. Why did they have a blender out? When I'd made tetrazinni, I don't recall having used a blender. The tetrazinni tasted more like dog food though, so that might have been why. I must have looked like a total moron, if anyone had taken the time to look over at me, a little creepy. My mouth was hanging open and I wasn't even sure what I was staring at anymore. But, it would probably be a good idea to check out the recipe and see if a blender was supposed to be used.
I found it after searching through a mountain of unmarked papers. "Just as I thought," I said tiredly, "Nothing at all even resembling a blender in this recipe!" What were they doing now though? High speed blenders and a soupy mess of chicken, gravy, and fried onions couldn't possibly be good when combined. "I guess this means I should probably intervene," I thought, not eager to make conversation with the gang of fourteen year olds. I leaped up, nearly clearing the desk of it's contents on my way. But hey, that blender was getting dangerously close. "Hey you guys!" I hollered at them, "You're not supposed to use it like that!"
Sorry if it was long.. Or really crappy.. I got a little carried away with this very random idea.

Not at all! I thought it was creative. ^^

And then, to make matters worse, the power went out.
