Writing and Snacks : Greg van Eekhout

Mount Damyoo

Computer still in the shop and will remain there (wherever there actually is) for another 4-9 business days. Yesterday my external back-up drive stopped mounting, so I would love to have my computer back in my possession, preferably with the data intact. That would be really, really, really ducky.

I always think I'm so clever when I assign essays of substantive length and complexity, so clever for challenging the students by making them perform acts of writing in a composition class. And then I have days like yesterday during which I did almost nothing but grade, grade, and grade some more, only to find that I still have more stacks of grading crying out to be graded. That's when I realize that there's a real strain of idiocy running through.

Well, I mean, that's not the only time I'm aware of the I-strain ...

Hey, all you people going to WFC ... know that, despite my jealousy, I still wish for you a good time. Because I am just that giving.
