Why am *I* not being paid?
I just discovered the online version of my hometown’s “culture” magazine (and by “culture” I mean “a lot of middle aged, upper middle class straight white people patting themselves on the back because not only are they like all of the middle aged, upper middle class, straight, white people who have reality shows and do ‘good things,’ but they also...

Today I was working with my small groups of students as they write sketches in French and this one kid walked up to me and he had on this oversized (for him, he’s ten) blue sweater, and the bottom right half of it was covered in like a cross stitched Bart Simpson face. It was so amazing.
I didn’t think it could better, and then he turned around and the back of the sweater, also in...

The Story of a Suicide
tylercoates:
I already posted a link to this article this morning, but I implore you to read Ian Parker’s piece about Tyler Clementi’s suicide and the impending trial of his roommate, Dharun Ravi. It took me about five hours to read it, not just because it was long but because I was at work and it was so upsetting that I couldn’t read it too long at a time. This is extremely powerful stuff and...

Tonight The Mountain Goats are playing in St. Augustine and I am going to mourn this fact by wearing the invisible “JD hearts JV” shirt that I don’t own and am not sure exists.
I could never get the hang of Thursdays.
Today at work I was being super positive, even though on Thursdays I teach seven year olds (hard as shit in another language) and then my next class has the worst nine year old I have ever met in my entire life, and today I finally sent him back to his classroom because I was so over him.
But I made this whole list of Things I Was Going To Do to help me in the future, both the very soon future...
