If it makes you feel better Kristin, instead of going to bed early I'm doing some more grading. So we are still comrades! (But no caffeine for me.)
You're not gonna jokey-rhyme your way out of this one.

Yay, comrades! Feh, up late, though.
Finished a draft of the thing and sent it off. Good enough for now. Too tired to focus any longer. I have to get up in five hours, and tomorrow is not going to be pretty.
Due to standardized testing, I have no plan period. I teach three classes in a row and then proctor a technology test for two hours without a break. Oh, and I get to do this with the backdrop of a school in mourning for the two graduates who died Friday.
Oh ick.

eek! How did they die? Car accident?

Yeah. I vented about it in my LJ, but I haven't had the energy to bring it up over here. Three former students, two of whom died. The third is in critical condition. Two of the three have younger siblings who are seniors at the school still. Tomorrow is going to be really rough.

I can't even.
I hope your tomorrow goes well, Kristin. Mine will probably go much better if I hit the hay soon, so I'm going to give that a try. I did some good couch potato work tonight -- BSG, Deadwood, and got a little bit done around my place. Laundry pile is diminished.
I hit people with sticks on Saturday, and it was a good day, but my achilles tendon (the one I injured in August) is stiff and sore today. I'm hoping this isn't going to be chronic, but this isn't a good sign. Saturday was also March II: The Abomination. Here's hoping that the snow and freezing rain was just a parting shot, since the weather forecast is supposed to be decent for this week.

I'm sorry, Kristin. I'm sure it's rough on the whole school.

Thanks.
Okay, I'm for bed. Five hours is better than none, and I don't even think the Coke is going to keep me up for it. I'm wiped. Goodnight all--good luck grading, Burrell.

Also, I'm collecting stories of fandom insanity. I wonder if I should post at Craigslist.
Are you going to include Kirbyclause ranting that "Surprise/Innocence" proved he was right about Angel having been faking goodness all along?

Allyson, LJ is your friend. Also, dare I say it, Fandom_wank. Them folks know where *all* the bodies are buried. Oh, and DL_anon. They follow the tinhats with great, um, focus.
Talk to Snacky.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I wonder if Snacky would grant an interview about Her Law.
