I had a lot to say. I can't remember any of it. By now we've all seen the political thing. There are reasons I never put political things in my LJ. One is I DON'T want to read my friends political views nor do I feel like talking about mine (Ben Franklin was quite right about that being a real way of ending a friendship) I know a lot of my friends like to talk about it so I just skip on past. The other reason is what happened with the SS. I've worked on and off for the fed. government since the 80's (my older friends will remember the snit I used to throw about EQ fans puttnig my 'elf name' on the envelope. I knew damn well this stuff was being monitored since I worked in a gov. lab) Let's just say I long ago developed a black helicopter styled paranoia about the government (to the point when the Lone Gunmen first appeared on X-Files my Dad called me to tell me he found the perfect man for me. Sadly  he picked Langley. I mean, come on, Dad, don't I rate a Beyers?)

Things here: The dean seems happy with me. Looks like I'll be here one more semester and they want to train me even better to teach on their dime before cutting me loose after the spring semester (I'm here on a grant to pick up a huge glut of students). She's of the same mind as me. The students need to stop bitching and do the work.

I'm heading to FL tomorrow to pack up the rest of me stuff and get it out of  evil_little_dog's house and it does work out well since I'm still legally residing in FL [Bad username or unknown identity: and I'm here on a temp work assignment (that'll change if they do renew me in Jan). I NEVER ]

[Unknown site tag][Bad username or unknown identity: got my absentee ballot for FL (seems they lost close to 60,000 of them. Go figure. At this point I'm]

[Bad username or unknown identity: sure voting in FL is like pissing into the wind) so I can vote in person.]

[Bad username or unknown identity: Getting ready to start Nanomo. I wrote nearly 20,000 words last week alone in ficathons. I think doing 50,000]
