Summertime…

Turned in the last of my grades for Spring term on Tuesday, began teaching Summer term Wednesday, just finished my first week of twelve. Three summer intensives, each overlapping the next… What have I gotten myself into this time?

Wow, Dale. Does this mean summer session D will not be as intense as the last?

Not at all! It just means I'll whine and complain more on my blog.

I seem to be literally unable to turn down offers of paid work for teaching, unless there is an explicit scheduling conflict to restrain me. Part of it is the desire to communicate what seem to me to be important things to emerging peers and citizens, but part of it is also this terrible sense I have that this is a job offer that won't ever come again, a chance to make and save some money rather than just reading graphic novels in the tub for a few weeks. It's like being a lecturer has transformed me into a Depression-era grandmother or something.
