Random Update

I just had this completely sudden moment of inspiration, and I totally know what I am going to write about for my religion class - specifically, rather than saying my paper is on "Asad, secularism, and violence." Hurray.
My goal is to write it tonight. This will doubtless not work in any real way, but it would be awesome.
Until later...

SNOW!

I should have taken pictures, but didn't. We had (according to WDSU) 6.4 inches. So, I hope all of you weird winter type people enjoy yourselves. I will just stay inside and try to survive the end of the semester.

I am thoroughly aggravated with students now (as if I wasn't before). One comes in today grade grubbing - and with a B nonetheless. Wondering why I didn't give the bonus points - uh, well they are optional and the Webster online dictionary is not a "well-integrated scholarly reference." Soooorrrry!

The other is failing and wants to know how he can pass the class. Um, but he hasn't read any of the articles due for discussion tomorrow, nor seen the film, nor looked at the online lecture notes, or ever came to my office, or .... well, hopefully my point is clear. Grrrr!

Well, enough ranting for now, must immerse myself in peer reviews, grading, paper writing, and article/book reading. (and hiding from the scary snow).
