oh durr. It's No FF. These are shows that- no matter how long of a marathon I'm on, I never fast forward through the opening titles. I believe Avatar also belongs on that list.
May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[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.

Teppy, I meant to say earlier, insurance ~ma to you.

Well, the rapture didn't happen, but I was able to give someone a near-religious experience this morning ... and give her a destination for her next vacation.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I got my student evaluations from last semester. Pretty good. The only consistent complaint was too much homework. One person said I followed the textbook too closely, another said I didn't follow it closely enough. And one person said that I spend too much time erasing the blackboard. I can only reach about half the blackboard, so I've got to erase twice as often as people who can write on the whole thing. This student suggested having notes on slides and using the chalk just for examples, which is actually something I've been considering doing, but I need to think some more about how to work it out logistically.

Hil, I just got that for my brother, along with the cookie cutters, for his birthday. He's in a cooking club, so I'm hoping that they are useful as well as amusing.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
That's good on the evaluations! Probably everybody says too much homework.
The other thing with erasing, would be to see if you could structure the lessons where the students are doing something or occupied during the transitions. We spend a lot of time erasing, too. Well, actually we spend a lot of time drawing staves back after having just erased them.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Much ~ma for Fay's little sister! May it be nothing.
Steph, I wish you good luck on tapering off Welbutrin. My anxiety calmed down, and my sleep cycle normalized, and it was just better. I'm not taking anything now (except supplements), haven't been for months, and I'm slowly starting to believe that I might be okay. I hope it all goes as well for you. Good luck with your Aetna woes, too.

Steph, I wish you good luck on tapering off Welbutrin. My anxiety calmed down, and my sleep cycle normalized, and it was just better.
My sleep and anxiety are exactly why I'm going off it. At the appointment today, we talked about it, and I decided to just taper off it but not start another AD. Because I can always go back in to the doctor if I need to.
Now if the insurance/IUD problem gets worked out, and the Coffee Laptop starts up, I'll be ahead of the game.
