Okay, so I can't post to lj about why I'm feeling like a lousy teacher and a failure and am drowning in self-pity, so instead I'll try to distract myself by reading the board.
NOW you guys all decide to get lives? Come back! Dance for my amusement, Internet people!
I am now nostalgic, because my favorite Italian restaurant closed just after their big St. Patty's day bash last year. I know, Italian. But they were both Irish and it was an Irish themed restaurant, it just served mostly Italian food. Plus corned beef on this day. Plus the best Irish soda bread ever.
But they closed and the city bought them out and tore the restaurant down so they can make a better entrance to their city hall. Boo.
They're part of what I consider home about this place. When the Rodeo Chedeski fires nearly wiped it out, it wasn't until after it was all over and I saw their restaurant, unharmed, on CNN that I cried.
Anyway, I would usually be going to their place today, but I'm not. Bummer.
I'm going to Toronto next week for training! I'm glad it was postponed from February.
My next-cubicle-neighbor brought over some homemade soda bread for me. Yummmm. It's better than my mom's (who always makes hers pretty dense and rather dry).
What is the website we use to conduct surveys of ourselves?
Mister Poll?
Why are the windows open?? Brrr.
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.
If people think this is a good idea, maybe I'll post this to Press.
Poll is flawed. No "ticky box" option.
