Twitter Still Sucks.....

....as does my ability to write a complete blog post:

• Failblog.org and Facebook Fails.  I wholeheartedly endorse bookmarking these blogs.  They've kept me entertained for a few weeks now.
  
• Speaking of Facebook, I have my own personal policy about students (current or graduated) asking me to be their friend.  My policy:  No Way In Hell.  I got request from a student who graduated last year.  Funny thing is she hated me, hated my class, didn't do a damn thing in my class, and went out of her way to let everyone know (including teachers, duh) how much of an asshole/bad teacher I was.  Yeah, let's be friends now.  
• This week is apparently turning into Passive Agressive Week here at school.  One kid just sat and moped at me for 5 minutes while I was grading papers.  Didn't say a word...for 5.  Minutes.  I didn't think passive agressiveness had a sound to it, but it does.  It begins with a heavy sigh.
  
• I ran 3 miles this morning at an 8:15/mile pace.  I was gassed.  What the hell?  There's no WAY I've lost that much fitness in 3 weeks is there?  
• I'm off to Washington D.C. next week for a journalism convention and I'm researching running routes while I'm there.  We're staying a little north of The Mall.  Rock Creek Park south to the Mall looks like my route.  Is it safe or am I going to be another Chandra Levy?
• About D.C. - we're taking 28 kids.  Our goal is to return with at least 26.
• I don't know why I do fantasy football.  I think I get way too invested in it.  I mean, consider that on Sundays, my life is hec-GODDAMNIT CARSON PALMER!   HOW DO YOU HAVE THE GAME OF A LIFETIME LAST WEEK? HOW?????  I need another hobby.
