I’m waiting at Fort Wayne International (so called for the one cargo flight a week to Toronto I believe or was that because of the one time they had a cargo flight to Toronto, I can never remember) airport, making full use of the free wireless. Even though I said I was going to forget […]

I’m horrified to see that a week has gone by and I’ve not so much as glanced at my blog. Life has been too damn busy. I think we’re finally getting straight with all the Blackboard frightfulness and I’m hoping that the system will start to operate as it should with our new integrated snapshot […]

Technically the first day of school was last Monday but quite honestly, last week was the worst week to be had since I started working at the uni. That whole stress-free, easy-going environment I love so much? Not so stress-free anymore. And what’s it due to? Why technology of course! Wretched technology or to be […]
