Adding a new linky-poo: Anne at creating text(iles). She's also a professor and has e-mailed me support over my periodic wailings about the tenure process.

Also: I'm wearing my Sitcom Chic for the first time today! The one thing I'm thinking is that it might be nice to add pockets - I need a place to put my keys when I'm in class. I'm thinking I could do a couple of squares out of the leftover yarn (topped with 3 rows of rib to match the hem and sleeve cuffs) and sew them on. They might drag down the fronts of the sweater is the only problem I can see.

my office is freakin' FREEZING. They're working on the A/C on campus, and I think it all got misdirected to my building.

And: one of the little things I love about teaching. Had a student tell me after my first class that she was not advised into a lab (sigh). So we went back to my office and found a lab that was open AND fit her schedule, and I told her what to do to get into it.

She acted as if I had given her something very very valuable when in fact all I had done was taken three minutes of my time and a few keystrokes on the computer.
