Spike's Bitches 42: Which question do you want me to answer first?  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Hurrah, Teppy!

Don't you dare stop keeping records, though.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Oh HELL NO. Not one bit. (Though I might back off of the obsessive monitoring of my time down to the minute. Which I really was doing, and if my lunch hour was really 62 minutes, I worked until 5:02 and marked it in my records.)

I loved 4 10s, because it meant a week with one fewer morning and one fewer commute. I don't actually hit my stride until about 3 anyway.

That's great news, Tep. I still hate their shitbaggy ways.

Me, too. But I need their shitbaggy paycheck.

I'd love 4 10s, as long as I could do my schedule of 10. I wouldn't come in early, but I'd happily do 9-7.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Great news, Teppy.

So. My adviser thinks that I'm not going to be able to graduate next summer, like I'd been planning to do. Looks like this doctorate might take 6 1/2 or 7 years, rather than the 5 or 6 I'd thought. But on the plus side, one of my students told me that I'm the highlight of her Tuesday.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

What JZ Said, with a heaping side order of What Vortex Said.

So very much this. Yay, for 40 hour pay!!!! Boo for stupid, crazy-making bosses.

Done teaching. Now, to do what I so very much love to do every fraking day. Make a shit ton of copies. The drawback to creating your own curriculum and materials and activities and etc.? Copies. Lots and lots of copies.

This becomes more prevalent in middle school. At least around here. I can even check Nate's grades online, which is nice since I don't have to wait for interims to get an idea how he's doing.
