I would rather sleep under the dining room table than deal with the duvet.

Black velvet if you please.

Most people don't realize just how long a PhD is.

Did you have this happen at all today?

I watched in real time as a student discovered that she had this during an ecology lab a year or two ago. She was looking at her hands and saying over and over "What is happening!?!". So her friends googled it and diagnosed her. Wild!

What? Canvas being down is the best thing to happen to my productivity in years!! 😜

Got my copy about a week ago, and finished it up today. I will later go back and re-read it carefully as I work through the code. Very clearly written, and sure to be extremely helpful.

I will eventually publish it all. I just need to clean out the garage, lose a few pounds, grade these papers, and organize the junk drawer. Then the writing shall begin!!!!

I don't have this "luxury" most often, but this time around no students requested extra time accommodations (which would have then required that I get the test to the testing center early).

When we lived in Connecticut, we had a cat that got sprayed twice in 24 hours. I guess we were all slow learners. (Interestingly, we see virtually no skunks at all in Indiana.)
