Up to my eyeballs in work and stress...bleh. Thanks for axing, though...I miss y'all.

Facebook.

But I get a lot of emails there...

I for one am staying right here on Sowal.

I've got a Facebook account, but I'm kinda lazy and I don't actively seek out friends...

So! Any of you Facebook-ers that are in the market for new friends... I'm under Kit Blackerby, and I'm not at all picky about who I hang out with online...

Reach is advertising some sort of newfangled toothbrush that is bent at an angle to reach your back teeth.

Ummmm...did no one tell them that they invented that same toothbrush 20 years ago? I don't get it.

Thank you, beautiful! I've missed y'all, too. My work is seriously getting in the way of my funn...time to find a sugar daddy and quit my job. (You know I had to say that!)

Beleive me...all the sugar daddies are worth half of what they used to be.

Aren't you on vacation now?

I'll take a Splenda daddy.

On paper, I'm on vacation. So far I've been at work most days of my "break." I'm restructuring 4 of my 5 classes.

Unsung? Hail, no. I make the little suckers sing...never thought about having them sing about me, though...:scratch: Grayt idea...

I hear ya. What a "vacation"! At least on our evaluation forms (partly for the purpose of merit pay) we get points for restructuring courses which I only have time to do when on vacation. Do you?

Yes, we are! People think I just work two hours a day because that's how long I'm in class. :roll:

I don't know if I get "points," but hopefully I get my contract renewed and my administration will fight to keep the fine arts in our school while the economy tanks.

My goal is to only work 50 to 60 hours a week this semester instead of 70-80....

We have a form in which points are assigned to make the yearly evaluation appear more objective. 70-80?

I was just talking to one of my cousins. She was telling me about another cousin who teaches art in a public school in GA. She is scared $hitle$$ that she is going to lose her job due to cutbacks in the arts. So I hear where you are coming from. I have tenure in my profession, so I'm cool unless the college shuts down or I commit a crime. But if it gets so bad here that the public schools stop music, I could volunteer my extra time to teach violin lessons. I'm not gonna lie -- I pretty much stink as a musician, but if I am good enough to play in the church strings group, I am good enough to teach children the basics.

Hope the powers that be understand the value of the fine and performing arts in education and in stimulating the entire brain and, as a result, that they do not do any more cutbacks in the arts. I will keep my fingers crossed for you, my cousin, and all who teach in the fine and performing arts with no tenure.

Luckily men's sports never seem to be hurt in a budget crunch.
