All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Part of my problem is actually that I freeze up when he asks me that, so I don't always have answers. Especially since it's literally as the last students are leaving the room.

Could you try to set up a semi-regular time to talk that isn't right before or right after class?

That was a really good WW.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

We're not supposed to be perfect yet?

Well, damn. Gonna have to work on that.

(That's not true. I'm not giving as many lessons as I should because they're all working, and I don't want to disrupt them. And that's just because I don't really get to choose what all is given to the students. If I had to really plan, it would be a whole other ballgame.)

My mentor teacher is supposed to have a conference with me, and let me know how I'm doing/did, but I think that's only at the end. Which is irritating, as my trainer will be seeing me before then. Yeah, self-eval's a bitch.

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

Thanks, Kristin! It's just all so overwhelming, and... uh... yeah, that's pretty much it. Overwhelming. And I really have to shake this habit of being afraid of criticism. It's not that I can't take it -- I even want it, in this case, I want to do better! It's that every time it comes up there's some little part of me that's waiting for them to say, "You know, you really suck at this. Maybe you ought to rethink this?"

Which is my own demon, and possibly that of being off my meds as well. They should kick in again sometime soon, and maybe things will even out.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Long shall the Vogue article "Halogen Lamps - The New Black" live in infamy.

ND doesn't think it's so neat. He's stuck at O'Hare.

I don't think it's neat either. If his flight gets canceled, I won't see him until Friday, and we've already not been together since last week.

Not that I wish this on either of you, but if his flight gets cancelled I'll get to see him.
