If my life had a soundtrack...Phantom of the Opera would be playing

Ok, that's because I am currently blaring it. It's one of those late nights when I am a sitting duck in anticipation of students and their needy questions. It's all about customer service, and I am here to serve the customers, um, or something. That's me in the stocks.

I continue to be astounded by the nature of the questions. Really.

Meanwhile, the Phantom is bemoaning his existence. I have no Christine to sing for. It's a bleak evening.

Some highlights:

• I finished filing. That'll last until Thursday afternoon.


• I scored 10 million points on Pinball. I am a beast.


• The candy machine is stocking my favoritest candybar, Zero. Yummy. I bought one and scarfed it down. It took the edge off the questions.


• I am all caught up on grading (nevermind I haven't assigned anything yet).


• My nephew called to tell me he's coming over later. They live 700 miles away. [smile]


• I burned my bottom lip on a hunk of melted pizza cheese. I sat and watched youtube videos and peeled off the dead skin. That is sick.


• Decided to whine here, to give Laura an opportunity to tell me to suck it up.

That is all.
