wow, that last entry was gloomy
I'm feeling much better now. Though my ridiculous obsession with computer games is once again wasting way too much of my life. It's time to resume challenge. No more solitary games (computer/video or card). If I'm going to waste time on idle pursuits, they should be social ones. Better yet, I shouldn't waste time. I've got a beautiful son and a beautiful wife to spend time with, and plenty to do in the classroom. I'm settling in to teaching (it's WAY easier not to be teaching science), though I still find the challenging class to be just that. I wish I knew how to teach them. I wish I knew how to get through to them in such a way that they would pay attention and learn from me. Many of them won't pass the course with the way it's going... and I know I'll feel guilty about that. But that's enough lamenting for now... I'm still just wasting time. To mark-it I go!
