  1. @busynessgirl Where are you going to be speaking?
  2. Annoyed that 6/20 students in afternoon calc took he day off, while I take time from helping with sick kid at home to come in and teach. #fb
  3. @bwyatt That's why I'm half-wondering if it's really an ear infection. No reason to doubt the doc's diagnosis, but it sure is hitting hard.
  4. 5yo's temp was down to 101 degF as of 8:00 AM. So looks like no ER visit. Still, this is one whale of an ear infection if that's what it is.
  5. @gordontheintern Her fever was down by the time I left. She is the queen of high fevers. Thanks.
  6. Today's work plans in a holding pattern for now. The Mrs is home today but the 5yo is running a 105+ temp, ER visit may be forthcoming.
  7. My ONE day of teaching this week. Doing FTC part 1 in calculus, maximal and prime ideals in algebra. Grading backlog is all done for once!
  8. @JackieB @k8nowak @samjshah I'm pretty sure TI's use Taylor polynomials to approx trig functions. Some floating point errors ensue.
  9. Our school district hasn't quite figured out the "electronic communication" thing. Email attachments are omitted, links are mailto:s, etc.
  10. Took the 5yo all of about 30 seconds to conk out for her nap. Digging into the last item of the grading backlog while she's out.
  11. @justice_nd Awesome! Good luck on the first two and good luck to GT on the last one. :)
  12. And the winner of "What's wrong with the 5yo" contest is.... double ear infection! I'm surprised. Figured she was too old for that.
  13. @justice_nd Job-related trips? It's a little early for on-campus interviews, I guess, but you never know.
  14. Off to take the 5yo to the pediatrician.
  15. 5yo had 104degF temperature this morning. So, I'm working from the home office while she crashes on the couch. Not all bad!
  16. Doing Fundamental Theorem today in calc- if I make it in at all. Both girls were running temperatures at bedtime last night.
  17. Whoops! I meant Clement of Rome. http://en.wikipedia.org/wik... #lutheranFAIL
  18. Today is the commemoration of Clement of Alexandria: http://en.wikipedia.org/wik... #TLuoT
  19. Just watched 2 OpenCourseWare lectures from MIT, one biology and one computing. Makes me want to go enroll there.
  20. @susanjspaulding That computer is really for his sisters (ages 3, 5). But he's learning by watching them. He can already use a mouse.
