Grading papers: send gin.

They are that bad. They are so much worse than you can imagine. Fragments! Runons! No subject-verb agreement! And let's not talk about thesis statements. [swoon]

I ought to have done them all when I was in Boston but, let's face it folks, that was just not going to happen no matter how crummy the weather. I did make a beret and hem that dress as well as make much progress on a black/cream striped sweater. I have two inches of ribbing and then some 3/4 length sleeves to go. I will try to post some finished and progress pix tomorrow. Provided I can get all of these monstrosities in hand.

Let's hope that I have enough red ink!

Ah ha, a woman after my own heart - "I didn't have enough time to do my actual work but I crocheted a blanket, welded a weather vane and ran up a bobbin lace bedspread'....

I feel your pain. I have another 70 homework assignments to go and then I'm done (until the midterms). Blah.

Only 5 more to go! yayayay!

Luckily, the midterms are multiple choice. Unluckily, the final papers will be all over the map. GO TO THE WRITING CENTER, YOU ILLITERATE BUFFOONS!

sounds like *someone* needs a drink! it's me!
