September 1, 1999
I was woken up at 8:00am this morning by a terrible thunderstorm. Then I was awoken
again by the telephone a bit after 9:00am. Van phoned me from her new house. She's
having a few problems at the moment which makes me: glad that I'm not buying a house, and helps me remember that old Latin phrase, caveat emptor
.
The ride to work this morning was thoroughly unpleasant. The rain was pouring down
and there was a bit of lightning. Yuck.
Work was okay, I'm feeling a bit stressed out these days though. I'm being given
new classes left, right and center and its a bit overwhelming. And of course, the
majority of my students are really, really low. It's kind of driving me crazy. Yeah,
I know its a challenge, but frankly, I've been challenged enough.
On the good side today, I got a letter from Donna, one of my friends in Canada. She's
one of the only people I know that doesn't have e-mail so that we don't get to correspond
as much as I'd like. She seems to be doing well.
Anyway, I've gotta be going, my bed beckons me.... nighty-night!
