Now, ain't you just the little psychic, Missy. One of the first thoughts I had when I woke up this morning was, "Why don't you do a few feature stories?" I've started two blogs, one of which I actually maintain about teaching. The chief, reason, Pat, is the fatigue. I teach 5 classes, 125 students, 500 papers to grade over 15 weeks, plus the tests and the paperwork, and occasional online courses for a different u. I wish I had the energy I had when I was in my 30s or even my 40s.

I suppose that sounds like an excuse, but I'm swimming as fast as I can just to keep my head out of the financial waters.

Good idea, though.
