GOOD LORD. there are not enough hours in the day. it's like i finish a big chunk of grading and then HOLY CRAP I TEACH FOR A WEEK or two and then they turn in more stuff or do more presentations and i can see how it's going to be this neverending spiral of grading and more grading until the semester ends in five weeks. five weeks! how can that be???
so i apologize for not posting. i would like to post. i would. but right now i'm scrambling. in fact, i shouldn't even be posting right now. i need to grade. and design this curriculum stuff i've had three weeks to do but let sit and the deadline is [cough] tomorrow.
(i've got to run. the beagle is back. maybe. she slipped out of my fingers this morning when i was letting the dogs out at [cough. again.] 5 a.m. and i hear her outside in the dead kudzu, rustling. she's a shifty one, lulu. damn her. it's some kind of trap. the dead kudzu is also filled with her own fecal matter. she knows i won't chase her there ...)
it was a ruse. lulu was just toying with me. by the time i got out there to shake the cat food bowl (like a dog whistle of sorts), she had disappeared into the woods again. damnit lulu! i don't have time for this today! (meanwhile, one of the cats came running right up to me. the unfriendly one. i was all, "uh, hi pekka. my, you're being friendly. i'm confused. now go away. oh, ok, here's some of your own food. now please go away. lulu? lulu? LULU????")
