So, yes. That should keep me busy for quite a while. In the meantime, I have some Uranium J updates for you!
Eins! Did you know that your local library probably has access to research databases and that you can search them from home? Me neither, until today! Now I have a shiny new library card and the ability to start working on some academic writing, if I am so inclined.
Zwei! I got my business cards! Pictures will be posted soon.
Drei! Deep training went well on Saturday and Sunday. I have been placed with my teaching partner, and I am all set to starting teaching with the program on the first Monday of October. I am so excited!
Vier! I'm gonna go see The Possession tonight. Oh yeah.
So, yeah, that's about it.
What are your favorite things to talk about? Do you have any updates you want to share? Comment! Comment! Comment!
I like to talk about a variety of things but right now I have an update, but I'm not sure I should mention it for fear that you too will fall into the trap. I've been playing with the new Bacon Number feature on Google. Don't do it if you value your time. It's a time vortex, sucking it all up while you frantically try to think of some obscure actor just so you can try to beat it, or at least get above 4. It's not easy. Save yourself while you can!
ReplyDeleteI couldn't find one over 3. This tells me that I need to know Kevin Bacon. Call ME!
Delete... Did you take Tomso's Sexuality and Gender Theory class? I usually don't have an issue remembering what it was I read for class, and taking a quiz a few days later. But, Tomso? He wants my brain to explode. Like, poof.
ReplyDeleteNo. I took Tomso for Critical Theory and AmLit 1. Thereafter, I was convinced that he was the devil himself. If I ever hear the word "rigor" again, the speaker will soon be experiencing rigor mortis. If hard teachers are battle axes, then he's effing iron sides himself!
DeleteI like talking about body image, gender politics, Interconnection of Ideas in Music, Film, Art, and Literature, Time Travel & Yoga, too. I'm going to have to create my own blog post based on your Friday Free For All!
ReplyDeleteWhen I am talking with friends, as I have recently discovered, we tend to mostly talk about other times that we have spent together. It sounds lame, but I guess since I spend a lot of my social time intoxicated I often learn a lot of things when we sit down and review. So either we are doing fun drunk things or having a verbal review of the previous drunk fun times.
