If you are tired of all these images in every post, too bad! I don't have time to really write anything, and here's why:
- commenting on 38 poems, 19 short stories, and 19 manuscripts and finishing participation grades for my online Creative Writing class
- grading 18 6-8 pp. case study papers and presentations for my Creative Imagination class
- marking 22 research paper drafts and presentations for my Poetry class
- class prep, answering emails from students, updating my classes' Blackboard sites
- actually teaching the classes with some semblance of sanity and order (oh, yeah)
- finishing a proposal for a new course
- Assistant Chair, English & Speech Department administrative schtuff (don't ask)
- meetings, meetings, meetings (ditto)
- introducing Sally Ball at Barrow Street reading/Marymount Manhattan College, Wed. 5/10
- Poetry Club flea market Thurs. 5/11 (please come by and buy some stuff!)
- family in town for my sister-in-law Rita's commitment ceremony (next weekend)
- rehearsing to sing at said ceremony
- helping Bob finish the lyrics for the song he's writing for Rita and her partner Matt
- finding something for Bobby, Stella, and myself to wear
- [your request here--c'mon, pile it on!]
What goes by the wayside?
- quality time w/kids and Bob
- sleeping
- eating (if only)
- breathing
- exercising
- and, of course, writing
