  1. RT @ msmagazine Hyatt fired staff making $14-$16 an hour w/benefits to hire workers for min. wage w/out benefits. http://sn.im/tdz2a
  2. Sometimes I feel like I don't deserve my job because I don't LOVE it. I love in class & I like the job; but, overall, no LOVE. Is that bad?
  3. Sometimes I feel like my job overwhelms me with futility, and that I don't deserve my job because of this.
  4. Memes that should die: Historical Heroes. What the heck does that mean, anyway, especially in the context of studying history?
  5. Memes that should die: "Lincoln owned slaves." Does no one read Snopes.com anymore?
  6. Ah man, grading freshman papers has me writing poorly: that should have been "looking up" and "opossum." Bad grammar and prose begets like.
  7. SiteMeter: Who are all of these people looking of oppossum Christmases? Do I want to know? Do I want to know why?
  8. @vuboq I should start checking my Clio e-mail, shouldn't I? My car is available for pooling!
  9. @vuboq Got it. 2 mile "fun run" is more my speed -- or lack of speed.
  10. Make that ALL of it, from a museum website. The assignment said "visit a historical site like a museum," not "visit a museum website."
  11. Demoralization = reading first paper and finding half of it plagairized.
  12. Also, they seem to think "draft" = "not important, so don't have to put effort into it."
  13. I get that they think they are polite in saying that they are not turning in their best work; but a decent attempt w/o excuse is more polite
  14. "Going Commando," blogging Palin's "book": http://goingcommandosp.blog...
  15. @jliedl It depends on what I'm doing that weekend. I warn students not to expect e-mail replies between 4 pm F and noon M.
  16. I don't have the energy to take on their problems, yet I still think I can help fix this one little corner of their lives.
  17. Schedule for day: morning anxiety attack, prepare for class, teach, afternoon anxiety attack, grade grade grade, collapse in fetal position
  18. Can't we all just have the entirety of next week off? Please? Pretty please?
  19. @pronetolaughter I second that "hah!"
  20. Oh magic grading fairy, where are you? If I put these papers under my pillow tonight, will you come and grade them for me?
