A few days in St. John's and weather that is barely winter. Speed back across the rocky scab of the Avalon, caught in a heaving chest of wind. Trees low and sparse, lichen like shaggy tufts of hair. The whole place seems made from the skin of a mangy dog. Barren and barely habitable, grey and wrinkled. But somewhere in rock undulations there is a ( Read more... )

If you have google mail that you check regularly, they have a calendar which sends you an agenda every morning. That seems most useful to me so far as far as keeping track of what the hell is going on.

I DO use gmail, however, I feel like I need something looming overhead that I can look and see when what has to be done. Getting a reminder in the AM of when a paper is due would not be so useful to me. I am plenty proficient with procrastination on my own.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Keep your chin up dude. I have stuidents that think I am in my early 40's. That is what makes you feel old.

If I could grow a beard or didn't look as young as I do it would be worse, you're right.

oh benny.

you're totally Van Wilder. Except better looking. and smart. and better packag-ed. and you never nailed Alanis Morrisette, as far as i know.

and don't think of yourself as being "THAT GUY". Think of yourself as being a bona-fide Grenfell Celebrity, an Urban Grenfell Myth. at least, that is how I think of you.

Work with this, milk it for all it is worth, like Thackray milks the Beard.
