I got up this morning and went for my usual workout. So far, in the last 3 weeks, I've lost about 10 pounds. My collarbones are sticking out nicely and my pajama pants are barely hangin' on. Gotta love it.
After my workout I finished up Little Earthquakes. Jennifer Weiner is a goddess. Given, the books are chick lit, but she's soooo funny. I was beginning to go into convulsions because she hadn't blogged since last Wednesday, but she finally posted an entry today. Now I can sleep. Whew! It was touch and go there for a few days.
What else did I do today? Ummmm, stuff for tomorrow. My classes are going to be a breeze for me tomorrow. Here's the schedule (like you care, but I don't want to go to sleep yet).
8:40-9:40 - English Lab - Homonyms quiz should take up the whole hour
11-12 - English Lab - Vocabulary quiz #1. Better not take the whole hour.
12-1 - English Class - one-on-one conferencing about their essays they wrote over the weekend
1-2:15 - Reading Class - We're covering the 2nd Relationships chapter. They're doing group work so I don't have to lecture for a change.
I'll be taking a book with me, for sure. I think I'm going to attempt The Beauty Myth again. Non-fiction sounds good right about now. I got extremely bored reading the "Work" section tonight...about how beauty is used against women in the workplace. There were technical terms, blah blah. I skipped to the "Culture" section, and now I'm much more amused.
The rest of my day:
- Played with the pups
- Watched Ellen
- Looked up my 1098 forms so I can get my taxes done this week
- Showered
- Cooked dinner (pan-seared cajun tilapia, corn, and hushpuppies for Mom)
- Watched American Idol with Mom (Bo Bice, you make me proud!)
- Played SIMS2
- Blogging as we speak
See, just a regular, lazy'ish day. I need to get up at the crack of dawn tomorrow so I can be at the DMV to get my new address put on my license when they open. Somehow, I don't think it's gonna happen.
On the docket for tomorrow:
- Corral my crazy hair
- Teach
- Work out twice
- Grade journals
- Read more Beauty Myth
- Get to bed EARLIER
G'nite my lovelies. Expect a post about Lori Earley very soon. She's the one that painted the picture I have posted on my profile.
Andi you read during their group work periods? You've got balls, mang! I feel like I'm getting dirty looks, so I walk around and spend time with each group, eavesdropping and marking them up for participation.
ReplyDeleteBut mayyyybe I'll take a book today :))
Well it's a class of 10 people....they're all independent and just barely need to be there. The group work part was relatively lightweight yesterday, since they were just basically outlining a section of the reading and presenting it to the class. So, when it came time for them to present I was leading them and grading on how well they prepared. Correcting if need be, etc. It was a really easy section, too, so that's one reason I made it group work instead of lecture.
