Late night, brief post...

Tomorrow morning, I need to tally scores and record grades for my most recent batch of papers. They are looking pretty good, but my students suck at citation and bibliographic formatting. I will yell at them during class. That usually helps.

We start our section on alternative medicine in the morning. The book I am teaching from has a selection of readings on alt med. Also, I am going to swallow a buttload of homeopathic sleeping pills in front of my class tomorrow. That should be fun and gross. (Seriously, they taste like dissolving ass tablets.)

I got an email from my boss recently. I had submitted a version of my CV to him/her for a department wide inventory, or some such thing. They wrote back, saying that my publications seemed "skimpy." Ouch. I'm working on it, dude or dudette. I have stuff in the pipeline. I'm also waiting to hear from Awesome Prestigious Journal, who asked for a rewrite of an article I submitted. That's a good thing. It's not my fault that they are slow.

On the writing front, I do need to come up with a paper on a certain WWII writer, since I am giving a paper on him this month. I sort of dread it, but I look forward to the convention and seeing a number of my chums there. That's the important thing.

Ah, well. Off to sleepy beddy-byes. My day starts at 5:00AM and it's almost 12:15 now. Double ouch.
