mix-n-match

I post so seldom now.  Shame on me.

Let me just say for the record that this has been a crap semester.  My students are generally blah (I know, I know, “Bad teacher!”).  I mean, they just don’t care.  Everything else I can deal with, but apathy has me at my wits’ end.   At this point I’m just trying to make it to Christmas, and then I’ll get a fresh batch.  I have some new ideas, so it should be fun to implement those.  I also know I have a couple of really good kids to look forward to, so yay.

I’m advancing in my quest to cook.  Slowly, but surely.  One day I’ll have it down pat.  I will!

Thanksgiving is coming up, and that mostly means three days off of work.  I plan on getting caught up with my grades and finishing off these grad classes.  I need to look into taking the GRE, too.

I like pens.

The hubby and I are making huge strides in saving up our down payment.  We plan to buy in the late spring / early summer, and it looks like we might be close to 20% down.  Sweet.  No PMI.  Maybe.  We’ve behaved well so far.  Free rent/utilities/everything helps.  My 30+K goes a long way then.

We have tickets to go see Cats in January!  You have no idea how excited I am.  6th row in the tier at TPAC, dead center.  Jellicle cats comes out tonight…
