Something New

State Flower of Alabama
Super Tuesday was super boring - I am referring specifically to various "news" teams. CNN, Fox, Katie C. - it is treated like sports news teams - hec it might as well be Terry and Howie and Jimmie blabbing dogma and theories.

Romney was "hoping for a surge" that never happened in California. On one hand the masses (asses as we are) can be affected to an extent by what happened in another state, but give us (the human race) a little more credit. We just don't gallop to where the biggest pile of sugar is, do we?

Confession: I do not understand super delegate at all and sometimes I understand the whole system LESS than I did just a moment ago.

I really do not like the band Chicago. I tried to like Saturday in the Park for many years, and maybe I did for a couple of months. But that band, they should be dismissed from the realm of music.

The Suns freak out because of Gasol - and Shaq is back - for a two year 20 million buyout from the Heat and poor Hilary is digging into her own precious pockets for a mere five million to keep her ass afloat!? Shaq should be giving it up to H-Rod -

I am taking English Teaching Methods on MWF at 2:00 - great great class taught by an amazing man - and nearly making by so called education classes irrelevant. Our major project this semester is an entire Unit - the idea being that not only can we use this in our attempts at earning employment, but far more importantly we will actually be able to USE it as an actual unit in the classroom. I am doing my unit over Drama, so Dan - I may be asking you some questions from time to time.

Also - Grammar for English teachers on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 12:30 - very weird, flashbacks to middle school - it is amazing how very complicated it all can be - same professor as last semester's History of English, which ended up being my most difficult and taxing class so far at Indiana State.

And then my independent study, we meet once a week over coffee and discuss Irish Literature (before 1800) and the evolving idea of Ireland as a country, or culture, or state of mind, entity - whatever you might think it is. Great class - still early going, didn't really start until the third week of classes.

Molly is going to be in her first talent show with two other friends, I guess they are going to dress in jeans, white t-shirts and do a dance routine to "I Love Rock'n'Roll." Our little photo-journal project continues.

Trista is working on her licensure and digging her counseling at ISU.

I just stopped.
