Ramble Ramble...
Well I had a rather productive day and despite being incredibly tired around 5PM I am fairly wide awake right now. This sucks considering I have to get up and mow in the morning.
One of my friends, recently divorced, said that she didn't want to find anyone until she was ok with being alone. I get that, and I think I was fairly OK with being alone a few months ago or so, but we're merging into the ridiculous right now. Despite asking 6 or 7 girls out in the last year, I haven't had a single date in that period. Maybe it's just the type of girl I've asked out or maybe it's something else... I don't know. Needless to say that my recently emptied house has not helped. The recent depletion of my friend base has not helped either. Summer is OK cause D-Brown parties with me, but then he has to teach in the fall and can't.
So on the positive. I think I'm teaching this class fairly well. I mean it's tough. I've gotta jam like 30 years of history into a lecture on average. I'm not an easy professor, but I try to be accessible. I'm trying my hardest to make college what I think it should be, which is a place for people to develop and express ideas, not regurgitate facts.
Ya' know, perhaps I'm just a hopeless romantic that's plagued with a sense of reality...
