( continues...) I ever needed an extension for some reason, she would understand. I thought that was so incredibly thoughtful and nice that I ended up always making a point of doing her homework first so that I never did have to ask for an extension. It was just so refreshing to be treated with respect like that. I mean, we had to have our bags searched when we entered school, so it's not exactly like trust was running rampant throughout the place.

I can't believe that it's 3:30 and I'm still awake.

ETA: And clearly, I am bored and can therefore write really really long essays about my academic life.

Heh -- sorry about the insomnia. Since I slept in until nearly 6 AM, I may inadvertently let loose some insomnia that landed on you.

I've been watching The Office and playing Jigsawdoku since I woke up, much to the disgust of the cats.

Which bit player from Pushing Daisies do you know, and what were the lines?

I find myself wanting to read over a transcript of the episode, there was so many juicy lines to quote.

The first dead guy in the silver leotard and harness. I didn't understand the kimono line. He said it was just a completely random line that they wrote, aiming for the cutesy factor.

And, yeah, a script from this show would have to be a great read.

Which episode of The Office aired last night? Since I usually watch them at work, and then I work at my other job on Thursday nights, I tend to just not discuss The Office much with anyone whom I don't work with, since I'm not always clear what has aired.

And to be fair, the reason I'm awake now is because I passed out after work around 4:45, and didn't wake up until 8:40. When I woke up with a headache and the sneezies. Which was awesome.

Your morning sounds fun. I delight in disgusting my cats. They have so few things that really irritate them, that it's kind of fun to discover something.

I don't like my current instructor, she's just...not great at teaching. when she knows her stuff (this is a health class) she's okay but when she's reading off the power point notes she frequently makes mistakes and misuses words or says the opposite. Not to mention she doesn't have a great handle on the class and says a lot of sarcastic remarks to, i think, stir things up.

Plus she doesn't really like class participation unless it's questions. If it's questions and you don't know something that's good. But unless you are one of 2 people in the class and you try to make points about something she'll dismiss what you have to say.

Maybe the real goal in her class is to teach her students to frame their points as questions.

Oh! She looks like my Ollie!
