bearshortyToday was weird. Papa managed to blow out two tires in two separate incidents. First in the morning on the way to work and then once he went to the shop to replace the tire and was heading to work again and a different icy pothole punctured another tire. It was not his day.
I spend the morning and a little class time finishing the rough drafts comments for one of my classes. I told the other class to send me the electronic copy so I could send them comments this weekend. Two days was just not enough time to turn over 45 drafts.
The classes were good. I basically taught them outlining after you write and how to use that to have better topic sentences and thesis. Hopefully, it will help students who are just writing summary right now.
My afternoon office hour I spent mostly on the phone, first with Bear and then with Yeva. I always talk more with her when she is going through a breakup. Or some other relationship drama she wants my rational calm advice on. I never have the right words to cheer anyone up, really, but I’m there for her to vent and lend an ear.
“Community” was just pure Awesomeness. The whole episode was about Dungeons and Dragons. I never played it nor seen it played, so it was actually a lot of fun to watch. And Annie’s elf seduction was hysterical. Oh, how I love you, show.
I cross stitched in between watching “Community” and “Bones” It was a slightly weird day.
Cross stitch: purple letter B and pale yellow
