Me on the Twitter

So I've decided to join Twitter. It's been a momentous decision I will soon regret. I mostly made it because blogging is too hard.

I joined today in honor of NaNoWriMo. I thought it was the least I could do in honor of novel writing month. Quite literally the least I could do. Because novels are actually longer than blogs I hear. Geez.

I Will Defiantly Go

So I'm grading. My favorite part of teaching. If only I could just grade--that would be the best. Not to sound like the curmudgeonly old man that I will inevitably become, chasing kids out of my yard with leaf blowers or chainsaws, you know, whatever's handy, but I have to say: "definitely" is not spelled "defiantly." Though, I see it misspelled that way so often why don't we just change the spelling? It would cause me less stress. And hey, most of the time it fits. I think it's defiantly a good idea.
