CynicalOptimist

blatherings about life, the universe & everything.... or more likely just books, students, family, & someday politics, religion and those more esoteric themes related to self actualization. Trying to be optomistic, but raised w/ Tricky Dick, bumbling Ford, Teflon Ron, Waffling-Read-My-Lips Bush & Slick Willie as her formative Presidents. Could we once again have intelligence & integrity in our nation's capital & capitol?

The last week has been a roller coaster, but here's the short version. I'm wearing a shiny pretty ring with diamonds. Supposedly divorce court date is September 8.

Have to go back to school & get my classroom ready this week. Teaching a different class that has a brand new textbook, that I've not seen. But I should see a lot of last year's freshman in this class which is sophomore English, so I won't be struggling to learn as many names, hopefully... just refreshing my memory. Gawd, I hope they grew up more than I recall.
