Whew! Finally caught up reading the 7 pages since this morning!

OMG
Limr is sneaking up on me

Oh wait, I might just like that

Oh yeah, you will!

You gotta watch her every minute.

Oh yeah, you do!

Speaking of Sheldon Cooper quotes, I just have to say that THIS one annoys the every-lovin' sh*t out of me:

It was DOROTHY PARKER, not Sheldon Cooper!



Now you know.

And yes, that's who Mrs.Parker was named for:

And because you're now just dying to know, Zelda took her name from the wife of F.Scott Fitzgerald. Yes, yes, I know

So I hiked about 2.5 miles today - not a lot of distance, but much of it was climbing and scrambling - and took 2 rolls of film (Portra 400 and Ektar). Hopefully some of them will come out well. I'll find out tomorrow.

Then I ran a bunch of errands, came home and ate dinner, and now I have a beer (Sam Adams Oktoberfest. Foolishly bought non-refrigerated 6-pack so had to leave it in the fridge for a bit) and I'll do a little grading and postwhoring!

I had parent teacher conferences

Having flashbacks. Had to do those as a teacher. My first year in Istanbul working at the private K-12 school, I had more students than any other teacher because I taught 2 classes in every grade from 6th to 11th (really it was 6-10, but they include one year of "high school prep" after 9th and before 10th, and high school ends after 11th grade; so it adds up to the same thing as our 9-12, but they call it different things.) More than 200 students. Those parent-teacher conferences took me HOURS. There was a line out the door; it was like a friggin' assembly line. For the first one, I needed someone to interpret, but then for ones held later in the year, I did them myself for the most part. Some parents spoke English, a lot were satisfied with what I could tell them in Turkish, and for some of the more complicated cases, we brought someone to interpret.

I was barely even human by the end of those nights.
