So after something like 4 hours, I have two or three days' lessons planned (though only one lesson plan is actually written), with notetaking guides and Do Nows for the week, but only one homework. I really suck at this planning thing.
Course, it would help if we could use the rassafrassin' book.

I'm just waiting for some celebrity to wear the motorcycle dress from George Michael's "Too Funky" video to an awards show.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
If I can wiggle it, it's not broken, right?
Nah, could still be broken. Definitely ice and elevate.

I'm viewing a flat today. Anybody got any advice on the kind of things I should look for? I'm thinking, windows -- natural light, power sockets, check there is a TV aerial.. I suck at this.

Make sure the plumbing works. No, seriously, turn on a couple faucets, flush the toilet. See if the heat in the water comes up fast or if you're waiting and waiting. Flip light switches, too.

Thanks, Theodosia. Sensible ideas.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
Got my first day of the new semester off to a good start. Well, no classes yet, but I'm pretty organized, food-wise, which I know makes everything else in my day more organized. Took the beans out of the slow cooker (I started soaking them yesterday! And put them in the slow cooker last night! I can plan ahead!), put some in my lunchbox and the rest in a tupperware thing in the fridge. Unloaded the dishwasher and put the slow cooker insert and assorted beany utensils in there. Put breakfast on the stove (and put the measuring cups in the dishwasher), and, which breakfast was cooking, swept the kitchen. Now, if I just remember to take out the trash as I leave the apartment, I'll be all set.
(This amount of organization in the morning is unheard-of from me. I'm very proud of me. Except that I think I may have just burned my cereal while I was typing this.)

What is even happening?
Kevin, look for water damage (signs of a leaky roof, or flooding), and make sure the heat works (turn it up and make sure it comes on). If you have a car, make sure there's parking, and ask where guests can park. Ask about the neighbors. Ask which appliances come with the flat. Make sure those seem to be working. Make sure there's sufficient closet and storage space. Ask about laundry facilities.
