I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
It's pretty much impossible to do any work today, right?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

That's my story (and I'm sticking to it).

I am providing counseling services for my (former) boss, who has just moved offices and switched to a new position. It may look like sitting around drinking coffee, but it sure as hell is work.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I have Actual Work I have to do, but only about 2 hours worth.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have actual work to do also. But zero motivation to do it. Except I plan on reaming my afternoon class today because, I've been told by the directors of the site I'm at, that I need to raise the level because the students say they know all this. Yet they couldn't define the difference between connotation and denotation. They couldn't complete a measly personal essay in the time given (about an hour and 15 minutes). Only one kid could articulate the difference between simile and metaphor and none of them understood that the point is juxtaposing two different things to make a point.
Fine. you know everything. Here's your test around metonymy, synecdoche, apostrophe, and personification that I planned on teaching today.
Sigh.
Apparently I'm angry about this.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
My boss (bass?) is out today, and the stock market closes early today. But I still have my therapy session at the regular time of 6:30. I'll probably go and see Wall·E this afternoon.

Am so jealous. I'm sending psychic messages to our bosses to let us out early but I don't have high hopes about this.
