Round 67 of the interview/selection process for a dean position I thought, at least 63 times, that I had no chance of landing. This round will either be another presentation on co-curricular trends…or evening wear.
Good luck! When you are a dean, I will never NOT call you Dean-O. Also, marry the youngest faculty member in your department. It never doesn’t work.
Packing for a move. It’s been four years since I’ve traded spaces. I forgot how much this feels like packing for a fucking percussion ensemble concert by myself.
Sounds like you need a better packing assignment sheet…Good Luck!

“This is what makes the world boring, quite frankly: the absolute refusal to risk that anything might be disappointing, and the accompanying conviction that if you are disappointed, you’ve been wronged.

Yep. Although, I probably would’ve wanted to hear a story about “The Jerk”…

Johnny Cash’s to-do list for sale.
I feel like I just discovered the meaning of life.
In many ways, the best such list that’s ever been made.
