orichalcum at 03:54pm on 05/01/2009Bad: You know a cold has gotten even more unfun when your poor wrecked nose starts bleeding...
Good: I felt the Manticore kick this morning!
Bad: This @%@#$@%@%@#$@ cold has meant that I didn't get much work or writing done this break.
Good: I'm immensely looking forward to teaching my next course, which has an awesomely funny professor - who advised me and the other way cool fellow not to do too much work this quarter and to focus on our academic writing, not the "benighted little angels."
Bad: I'm not going to my academic conference this weekend, due to, well, a lack of reasons to go.
Good: I'm not going to my academic conference this weekend, which, frankly, is not exactly a barrel of laughs at any point.
Bad: My teeth are still kinda tingly and hurty in cold weather.
Good: I didn't get a root canal over break, because apparently I don't need one. I may need implants for my mutant baby teeth, but they can't do that till 6 months after I give birth, anyway.
Bad: I'm feeling kinda overwhelmed by social commitments right now.
Good: I get to see lots of awesome people in the next two weeks!
Weirds: General piece of advice for folks and their siblings: When submitting an email address for use by an alumni college interviewer, "insanejohn@gmailcom" (actual first name changed) is not necessarily the right way to send a first impression. While "bookcrazy" is slightly better, it still leads me to associate you with mental illness rather than, say, the qualities I'm really looking for in a future student of my institution.
My classes this quarter have a 2-1 or, in one case, 3-1 (12-4) M-F ratio. Two male profs, two female fellows. This is going to be...interesting.
