From CNN.com, in an article about the meteor that exploded over the midwest:
“For me, it’s a dream come true,” [Paul Sipiera, a professor of geology and
astronomy at Harper College in Palatine, Illinois] said. “I always tell my
wife that when I die, I hope I get hit in the head by a meteorite flying
through the roof and it came pretty close,” he said.
(Hey, everybody’s gotta have a dream…)

Whoever said i should become a teacher made a big mistake! I can’t take it anymore, too many problems, too much grading, too much stress, too many unhappy students!!! Someone please tell me why I keep torturing myself like that!!
Tomorrow, Baltimore… dear friends, write me while i’m gone and away from my computer!!!
Can’t write much anymore thanks to carpal tunnel syndrome… can’t feel my fingers anymore, and my hands/arms hurt bad… so now it’s YOUR turn to write!!!

antibiotics not working… i’m getting resistant to this stuff way too fast! so now i go around with my little pillow to sit on… and i’m sure i don’t look like an idiot… Had my students read a pretty discusting story just because it’s fun to know about discusting things too, not just the happy, funny, or cute things of life. so… does anyone have something interesting to tell me? what’s up people?
