I fear neither death nor pain...
I had a dream I was dating Connor Temple last night. Apparently his skills in the bedroom were...lacking. But I distinctly remember thinking, "This is not a problem...I can teach him..." LOL I woke up shortly thereafter. Dammit...
I just finished grading all the papers that needed grading. Tomorrow I must write lesson plans/notes/generally figure out WTF I'm doing this week. Seriously...I don't wanna go back. I'm in such a good mood - this week has been wonderfully relaxing, full of reading, writing, friends...I don't want to face the apathy of my students. They literally suck the life out of me...every weekday I come home utterly exhausted.
I'm currently watching "The Two Towers." Or...at least...I've had it on in the background as I graded (which is my way of trying to convince myself that I'm not really doing work. Yeah. I'm not fooled a bit). However, I did stop long enough for some of my favorite scenes...and I must say, that of all the great heroines of page, stage, and screen, I relate the most to Eowyn (the movie version). Two years ago, one of my students randomly said, "Miss Quinn, you remind me of Eowyn," and I swear, I must have glowed for the rest of the day. It is one of the greatest compliments I've ever received.
In the unlikely event that any of you have watched Syfy's "Alice" and are not members of new_wonderland, but are interested in reading my fanfic (which is actually quite good, if I do say so myself), behold the following two Hatter-centric pieces:Oh...I've changed the "quote of the moment" in my "components" section (starting out 2010 on a positive note ) - "Remember, Red, hope is a good thing. Maybe the best of things. And no good thing ever dies." ~ Andy Dufrane, "The Shawshank Redemption"
Peace out.
