Too Much Work

This is a post just to let you know that I probably won't be posting very often or soon, for that matter. I'm trying to get two new classes up off the ground and manage the writing center. None of this comes naturally to me. I have finished Crime and Punishment and initially wanted to blog about it, but I don't have enough time. My outlook on the world, my job, etc, is a little bleak right now, but I've never been happy, at peace, or even in a mild state of contentment for long. I guess this is my natural temperament. I'll post again when I can and when I feel like I have something worthwhile to say.

Florida

David and I are leaving for Florida today and we'll be back Sunday. And yes, this trip was planned and not spur of the moment. Our friend Matt is getting married. I'm not particularly fond of Florida for a couple of reasons. I was forced to spend every family vacation there as a child because my grandparents lived there. I dearly love my grandparents, God rest their souls, but Florida is too humid, too swampy, and way way way too hot. My ideal temperature ranges from 65-80, and not a tick above. I don't even like beaches and I hate swimming in open bodies of water. But anyway, off to Florida we go, and it'll be nice to be at Matt's wedding and get a couple of days off of work.
