fail, fail, sick, fail

Accidentally stood up Megan at the gym. Then slept until 11. Then figured out that I had incorrectly posted grades after I thought I'd fixed them, twice. Then had a student snark at me because they didn't do as well as they'd hoped even after the curve. Then was late getting in to school to meet another student for a make-up exam, despite leaving the house 40 minutes early, because there was an accident on my bus route and my stop was missed for 20 min and then re-routed. And am now stuck waiting for a file to save in the copy room. And because I was sick yesterday I'm behind on course prep for next week and haven't touched the next grant application that is due, I think, on Sunday. And don't even ask about my artifacts.

Also I have some kind of horrible death plague, see above re: sleeping until 11.

Ugh.

Ah, sucks. :/ Remember that while the artifacts don't catalogue themselves, it doesn't have to be done by next week. And student snark is tough - always - but also undeserved. Hope you are feeling better soon! *hugs*

Watch out for the hini, eh? :P

Man, I'm sorta glad I avoided ever having to deal with whiny students. I had enough trouble keeping my mouth shut in class when people complained about grading. Heck, in my head I was hectoring people from Steve's post from my office.

You didn't stand me up- I got your message in time. No fail! I decided to walk to/from work instead of going; my back didn't feel like slogging it out on the elliptical today.

I'm sorry you don't feel good. :-/

*huuuuuuuuuuuuuuugs*

You are not fail, you are awesome. I hope your death plague does not involve a cough and fever. Please take care!
