I just got an email from one of my bowling students asking me when the first homework was due and what they were supposed to do for it.  I'm glad I spent 30 minutes going over the syllabus, which has all due dates listed, on the first day of class AND I'm glad I have a calendar posted online that says all the due dates AND I'm glad there are ( Read more... )

32 people in ridiculous walking class dropped down to 21!  Yesssssssssss!  Feels like 19 degrees outside right now!  Noooooooooooo!

Walking class is weird.  I lead 30 people around like an f'ing tour guide... sometimes talking to them but sometimes silent... in our coats because the "feels like" is 26 degrees Farenheit...

Off to the bowling alley for 3 hours.  Goody.

I think the main reason I went back to school was for the Christmas break... There's nothing like three weeks off to live it up.  Here's what I did (the abridged version ( Read more... )

Dog visitor is un-neutered horndog that doesn't understand how to play with Sandy because he's too busy humping her.  Sandy is frustrated beyond belief at the 8 pounds of dog hanging off her back end.  Horndog barks all night long, keeps me and Sandy up.  One hour of sleep on Friday night, three hours of sleep on Saturday night.  Getting sicker.  ( Read more... )

It's the weekend!  ...but I'm sick, and that makes it crappy.  I had a test yesterday - didn't study due to the sick factor, so I decided to show up early to study for an hour and for another reason*.  I cracked my notebook open, and the fire alarm went off.  It's like it was fate for me to not study ( Read more... )

We have to present case studies in my teaching seminar.  The date that I originally signed up for didn't end up working, as we had an extra lecturer and no time for case studies.  The prof moved my case study to October 31 aka Halloween aka Fall Break.  I pointed it out to him, and he said he would get back to me.  New case study day:  November 28 ( Read more... )
