cornerofmadnessFirst off thanks for the concern. I appreciate it. Sigh. Opened the mail box and found three more medical bills. I think I get less concerned than you all because I've been so sick for so long I honestly no longer care.
But I did get teh appointment changed. I'll be there on friday. In between TWO exams. Okay that'll be insane. I'll let you know what happens.
I have the eye doctor appointment tomorrow and I'm dreading that more. I pretty much know what's going on down below but this eye trouble is puzzling and disturbing.
And on a work related note- ARGH to the bimodal curve, a little spike of A's and a HUGE spike of F's. Seriously what more do they want. I actually told them BEFORE the exam the essays I was putting on it. The spoon is so far down their throats, it's coming out their asses and yet nothing gets absorbed. Sob.
And I've been using powerpoint outlines that come with my text book. They're beautiful, cut my work, have all teh text book graphics etc etc. Usually I just have to add a little. I opened up bone today and there's NOTHING. Just a review of the skeleton. Nothing. no bone cellular stuff, no types of bone, no how bones form. Yeah I'll be typing my little fingers off tonight
and gakked from Ninerva (it's a meme with an endless source of stupidity)

And it sounds like you're the type of teacher I would have loved to have had in college... it makes it easy to study when a prof says "THIS WILL BE ON THE TEST." Then again I had profs who said that about certain subjects and students go "huh?" when they saw it on the exams.

P.S I always love essays on my exams, because I kick their asses. *pumps fist*, I'm also the master of teh bullshit.
