Michaelduplessis: i mean, Ed is HARD!!!
idagolightly: oh my!
Michaelduplessis: it's like science and stuff
idagolightly: its just very methodical and scientific
idagolightly: jinx
Michaelduplessis: I asked my boss if tis meant that she was going to fire me, and she said no, why? and I said, I kinda thought fucking up big time would mean getting fired
Michaelduplessis: totally--like you can't just interpret
idagolightly: what was her response?
idagolightly: you cant even bullshit!
Michaelduplessis: if it's any consolation 2 u, i'm struggling--much more so than as college professor--it's the real world, baby
Michaelduplessis: she was cool; I like my boss; she's tough but OK
idagolightly: yea - its more security but i liked the professor gig now
Michaelduplessis: yeah, that was my first shock, like I can't bullshit?! help!!
idagolightly: ahahah - atleast i'm not along
idagolightly: alone
Michaelduplessis: ya, but if u think about it, we R making a difference :-D
Michaelduplessis: totally; as I say, I have been battling
idagolightly: yea that was the americorp motto
Michaelduplessis: not that U shouldn't write
Michaelduplessis: well, I do sort of buy into it
idagolightly: 'it is true
Michaelduplessis: working this job has taken me places I never would have gone if I'd stayed a prof (mentally)
idagolightly: i try to subvert the process as often as possible
Michaelduplessis: oh ya, that's why my boss is cool because she believes in education research as social change
idagolightly: awesome!
Michaelduplessis: still, when you are crunching #s at 4 AM, that seems vague, somehow
idagolightly: i havent seen 4 am in sooo long
idagolightly: i cant believe i'm up right now
Michaelduplessis: only to get up at 5 AM to be at a school; why do they start so goddamn early
idagolightly: yea its horrid

idagolightly: i am supposed to get there by 7:45 but i can never arrive before 8
Michaelduplessis: o god, like i could club even if i could afford it
idagolightly: i think this job has cured mine
Michaelduplessis: ya, i'm just chronically 1/4 hour late; they kind of adjust
Michaelduplessis: same here
