I had an entire post written about things that annoy and irk me. But I just deleted it after talking with a student because those things are trivial and pointless. There are people with bigger problems, and what really makes me sad right now is that I would really like to help this student, but the most I can do for her is give her an extension on the exam tonight.

Wow. I'm sorry.
(Because I just can't be totally serious or sincere, I have to add that perpective irks & annoys too.)

As small as it is, at least it's one thing she doesn't have to worry about.

Seriously, giving her the extension is probably helping a lot, and more than some would do. Good on you!

Being able to listen and give her an extension are a gift.
