Thursday, September 11th, 2008You may have noticed that sometimes I disappear for a while, and then I come back claiming that I’ve been busy or that nothing interesting has happened, and while it may be true that I’ve been busy, I rarely fail to write for lack of interesting material. The inside of my head is a constant […]
The Emperor’s New Clothes (include an American flag)
Thursday, September 4th, 2008I took my this-semester class on their inaugural foray into classroom theatrics today. It’d been a while since I’d had a class willing to take part in an acting activity (or any activity, really, that involved them possibly looking like imbeciles), so when they seemed not only willing, but excited even, to put on mini-productions […]
confession
Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008I put “Watch Arrested Development” on my to-do list for the afternoon just so I could be sure to accomplish something. If I added “nap” to the list, I could be super-productive. Ok fine, back to lesson planning.
stay of execution
Monday, September 1st, 2008Whew, so I found out that my afternoon class actually starts NEXT Tuesday, so I have another week to get ready for it. Which means I spent the whole day in my jabambas watching Arrested Development.
I keeeeeeed. I only watched like two episodes, and I really did do a lot of work on the class, […]
Happy Labor(less) Day!!
Monday, September 1st, 2008Happy long weekend! I hope you’re not at work as I am not at work. However, having neglected to do any work for the past two weeks (unless you count blogging, reading/commenting on other people’s blogs, watching Arrested Development, registering on various get-yourself-published websites and looking for other jobs work, which, apart from the AD-watching, […]
another day of sweet, sweet unemployment
Tuesday, August 26th, 2008As you can see by my twitterances (aka tweets, twits or another word Amaris used once that was NOT the correct terminology), it’s been a super busy day. It started bright and early. Well, mostly bright because it was about 9:30. Anyhoe, I had to finish watching a DVD that I had to return to […]
quasi-unemployed
Tuesday, August 19th, 2008So I got quasi-fired. Not to worry, though. I’ll be back at it in a couple of weeks, but what had happened was that I was going to teach a field trip class for these two last weeks of inter-semester vacation, and we didn’t have enough students to justify having two teachers there. And since […]
oh internet…
Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008I’m leaving tomorrow, and if I don’t have you in Mexico, internet, I have to say…I really won’t miss you at all. You either, PunkBerry. I am SO looking forward to four whole days away from everything. Well, everything but Whitney, but she doesn’t count. No phone, no email, no texts, no work, no driving […]
coming down (aka crashing)
Friday, July 18th, 2008Well first of all, can I get an “amen” and a “thank ya Jesus” that it is FRIDAY?! I mean seriously. This week has actually gone by really quickly, so I’m not complaining about that. I’m just saying it’s now one week closer to the end of July, and as we all know, if I […]
BAD BLOGGER! BAD!
Tuesday, July 8th, 2008I just hit myself on the nose with a newspaper because I am officially the worst blogger in history. Well, maybe not in history, but in the last week at least. Sorry about that, friends. And I SO don’t have time to be doing it right now, but I wanted you to know that I […]
