Father, forgive me, for I have sinned. It has been five months since my last confession on here ( Read more... )

Ah, life. So many things change, and I'm just overwhelmed with it all. But in this house, who isn't? The dog acts like nobody pays any attention to her, the cats are neglected at times (especially in the mornings), and Zoey is tired from school most of the time. She's done well with Xander so far, but the newness is starting to wear off ( Read more... )

Life has been really hectic, and blogging hasn't been a priority. Work's been full-speed ahead, though things have worked out better than expected in some ways on that front. Of particular note from last Thursday was the school's carnival for the students. I volunteered for the dunk tank, as did more than enough others, so we had penny voting to ( Read more... )

I can't even remember the last time I updated. I barely check in on myspace, and I haven't been to livejournal in a solid month or more. I have just enough time to keep up with facebook, but in the process, it seems I only post those little comments and not anything substantial. With that said, let's see if I can think of what I can post ( Read more... )

It's been a good-size piece of forever since I last posted, and I have no idea where to begin ( Read more... )

I don't even remember when I last updated. Work is seriously keeping me too busy to think beyond "What do I need to do next," whether that's a work or a home "next" list. I'm tired and not in a good place mentally, and things just keep piling up. Amy's car has three oil seals that need replaced (for $1400). I'm stuck teaching three full classes ( Read more... )

It’s between terms at work, with the new term starting tomorrow, and I’m getting ready for it. I’ve got my paperwork more or less in order, and my syllabi printed. The extra things I intended to print aren’t happening right now, as we’re having printer problems, since it’s the start of the term. This makes sense if you think about it: at the start ( Read more... )

Yesterday when I took a nap, it was raining a bit. When I woke, it was frozen solid on everything. I drove to class anyway, as it hadn't been canceled. This was what some would call entertainment. I got to skate across a parking lot in dress shoes and run my car into the curb and everything. Then I get in and am told they just closed the school. I ( Read more... )

It's been a while, and I can't even think of everything there is to say. I really just need to go to bed, but what the hey ( Read more... )

Recent developments have been...interesting. The college is working on adding a whole lot of focus on the gen ed classes (which, obviously, includes English), including developing a remedial program. As such, they need people to do that. They're looking for "lead faculty in" positions (in English, math, and so on), and I expressed interest in the ( Read more... )
