o.O
401k eh, don't have it set up yet seeing as I'm still in school...
:|
But seeing as I'm doing business yeah it'll probably come up sometime in the future.
Not old, just a lack of sleep.
Unlike you gramps I didn't go to bed before the sun set.
:3
Oh thank god. For a second there, I thought you were going to post the Victorian piece that I dare not repeat its name...
Victorian.
Ha!
HAAAAAAAAA!
How about we discuss a piece from the first poet to be buried in Poet's Corner of Westminster Abbey?
An incomplete but albeit famous poem telling the tell of multiple people on a pilgrimage while satirizing the social and political construction of England in the middle ages....

How about we don't, but we say we did? Actually, I used a quote from CT last night in a presentation on the Romantic concept of Cockney. Ahem:
“And when this jape is told another day,
I sal been holde a daf, cokenay!” ~Geoffrey Chaucer, Canterbury Tales (1386)

So, he's good for something.
How can you want to teach English and not love CT!?
/shakes head

Because I love Shakespeare and the Romantics! Don't get me wrong, if I have to teach it, I will. It's just not my cuppa tea. Besides, I'm more on the side of writing than reading. My students are gonna make some kickass papers when I'm done with 'em.

And who do you think Shakespeare(Or the men who formed a writing guild under the pen name of popular actor William Shakespeare) read?
HMMMMMMM?!?!
I'll tell you...
It was Beowulf, Inferno and CT!
Ewwww, paper writing.
Excuse me I'll go back to balancing these account books....
Holy ***, I should write a T chart/ journal entry poem format concrete poem...
Hm....
See? I love Beowulf and the Inferno! Just like I dig me some Milton, although I need to finish the poem in its entirety. That being said though, I know about CT and the canon, so at least there's that. I'll teach it, and that's that as well. But I'll do it through gritted teeth, just like when I have them doing research papers.
I hate research papers and am going to feel like such a hypocrite for assigning them.

Ok, so yesterday was Shakespeare's birthday and death day, do anything special?
It was? Craaaaaaap. No, I was at school all day. I feel like I should have reread Macbeth or something, now.
Heated seats are nice but they made me feel like I peed on myself. xD I did miss them this winter.
Never gets cold enough for them here.
After like the first 5 minutes with them they just get annoying.
One thing I love is my remote start.
Walk outside to defrost my window?
*** that.
Have to remember, I'm from Georgia. When it dips below 50F I flip ***. mainly because I don't own more than a fleece and jeans....wait no...I own a pea coat too...which is too warm to ever wear in GA.
Oh, how we tortured that poor old woman... All she wanted to do was teach us how to english and all we wanted to do was drive her insane. Even the most minuet details of her personal life became fodder. We found out her dog passed away and all the sentences we wrote on the blackboard that day went something like "The dog that barked all night, was dead in the morning". Day after brutal day we tormented her endlessly. Some of the things are too horrible to put into words. What darkness, what hideous evil resides in the hearts of children...
She retired mid year... her mind finally snapped like a dry twig.
And we are all going to hell for what we did to her. Of this, I am certain.
Perhaps, there are some sins you can atone for... but not ours.
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
