After an absurdly long time being locked out of my own site because I was too stupid to realize I was trying to log in with the wrong username, my teaching blog is back up and running. Just a quick (but funny!) post for now, but I'll be posting regularly from now on.
Here's the link: Long Absence...But Pictures!
Please feel free to pass the site along to any teacher types in your life.

What is even happening?
The recap for last week's Lost has been published at TWoP, which I mention here, because it contains a few BtVS shout-outs, in honor of our girl's 12th anniversary (today).
If you read it, you might want to click on the "Theme Song" link, when you come across it. Cheers.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
This seems like the sort of thing NYistas, or others visiting NYC might want to know about:

The production -- a collaboration between Merritt, director Leigh Silverman, and writer/actor David Greenspan -- begins a special limited engagement run on May 7 at New York City's Lucille Lortel Theatre.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
OK, as an experiment I created a poll to see what Buffistas think/feel about the economy: [link]
There are only three multiple-choice questions.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
We seem to have another large pet food recall going on. I found it here: [link] which is a huge page, and you have to scroll down to the end. I CC&Ped the pet food list to my lj here: [link] for easier reading.

As part of a promotion for one of our books, Drollerie Press is sponsoring Pagan Singles, a dating/friends/group site that allows people to post dating personals. I'm hoping that some of you merry band of people will go sign up and create a profile and a post, poke around, try to break it (but not too hard), and let me know what it's missing or what it ought to do differently.
You can read about the book, which will be published electronically this week, at [link]
