I pretty much talk about whatever is on my mind. I justify this by tying it to talking/writing for specific purposes-- pretty much taking advantage of and telling my stories to a captured audience. They're my therapy. As long as I have students, I'll never need a therapist. They, on the other hand, might. But they need a crazy English teacher to talk about. Also, humanitarian stories and the like about my dog help ease them into the dreaded grammar class, which causes many to believe that I am not at all human. Mysti, hang tough, girl! You're worth much more than that paltry promotional raise. If they don't see that, some other place will. On the other hand, a bird in hand is worth two in the bush. (Apply whichever of the two aforementioned advisements you need to ). Virginia really is quite nice!
