got together with a former co worker

who actually moved to Pittsburgh. It was nice sitting around and talking. I had more to post about but i'm insanely tired so have some dragons

















All the dragons in one place

Dear Sinuses

Rot and Die. There was no reason to get infection but hey noproblem. I can't wait to start the new year with a rampaging sore throat and pain like my head is exploding not to mention the foul tasting goo running out of you.

On the up note i got another book case and new glasses and a pizza pan (and a spider) at Targets with my 10% off card. How all this stuff is fitting in my car...

stabs body

Okay seriously WTF body? I came home from my uncle's and told mom I'm feeling a bit shaky so I checked my sugar. 188. Sat with her for 10minutes then got in the shower. Started shaking, ravenously hungry, the place was spinning, nearly fell through the shower glass. Go out checked sugar it was 88. In 20 minutes... ate, feeling better now.

One thing I did want to mention is the WTFery K-12 education gets up to. My friend has been teaching 22 years college level but can't find work here so she thought okay H.S. (something I was thinking not that I want to but my college is in TROUBLE. They can't even afford to feed us at the faculty meeting). Because she's not an education major they won't hire her and if/when she gets the alternative certification to teach (something I'm considering) she will be considered as having NO teaching experience. In fact she would be considered a worse option than an education major with a science emphasis.

And we wonder WHY our schools are screwed up. Let me see, someone with a dual degree in chem and bio with 22 years experience vs someone with TWELVE credit hours of science which is all that is required for that emphasis. Who would YOU hire?
