t Not really here

t OK, just a bit

So, as I was afraid yesterday, we did have no internet for the whole day, and just managed to get the connection back a few minutes ago. So I turn on the computer in order to work (e-mail exam grades), and just take a very quick look at the rest of the world, to make sure it's still there and the same as it had been when it disappeared on my last night, and then I find out that no, wonderful news just happened!

Teppy, I'm so happy for you! Well, in a sense, even more for Tim, though I only know him from your stories, because he gets to be *your* husband, but there's no contradiction there, I can be happy for your both, and I so so very much am!

Hmm, this post needs more exclamation points.

And cereal [Edit: who am I kidding, chocolate and a cookie, in order to convince myself to get back to grading, and make this post, too, all meMeME] because it deserves its own post: happy birthday, connie! With lots of wishes for a great day and a wonderfu year!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

This just in: self-evals are annoying.

Holy. Crap.

In fairness, my university, like Hil's, is an astounding bargain for in-state students. A motivated student at any of these midwestern behemoths can get a world-class education for the price of, well, for the price of eight years of decent daycare. Not bad.

Disclaimer: unmotivated students can get a degree at one of these schools without learning anything. They need the added attention that a smaller, more expensive school can provide.

Just answer everything 'Awesome' except for areas to improve on and put 'Being even more awesome'.

That's not going to work for questions like:

Thinking of your current role, what opportunities within your department do you see to help you develop?

I can barely understand what they are asking. Yeesh.

For those you just put "Awesome, think about it."

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Lack of Ice cream vending machines. Which is an opportunity to install ince cream vending machines.
