Puppy with a Dead Bird

Comments Off

I finally finished the technology profile lesson plan. It became Paying Attention to Technology: Reviewing a Technology. It doesn’t feel like a stellar lesson, but it’s done. I can’t decide what to write next. I have several ideas written down, but I can’t seem to focus. I should do something with all the YA lit that I’ve been reading, but I can’t quite decide what. I especially don’t want to come up with something that is so tied to a single book that it has limited usefulness.

I like this idea of adding keywords to entries. It would be even handier if I were to do it for my Lists of Ten. I should convert them or something. I never really know if they’re in the best setup. Actually, I guess they probably never are in the best setup because I’m never using the cutting edge stuff.

I’m feeling very puppy proudly bringing an excellent gift to my owner who looks down at a dead bird. My writing isn’t great. No one could be excited about that lesson plan. I don’t seem able to come up with anything new that I can write. I’m just not having a great week.

On the plus side, I think that I finally have DSL setup for my trip to Houghton. It’s taken the effort of five people, and I don’t really have any confirmation on the payment. Maybe I should just give up and stay home. Things seem very messy right now. Or maybe scattered is the better word.
