Gosh blogs are great

Gosh blogs are great. I can just spew out whatever thoughts are floating around in my mind at any given time and put it out on the web and by doing so, it automatically becomes impoortant. I guess the medium really is the message. I am doing so right now as I lie on a beach sipping a key lime martini while Calypso music wafts on the warm breeze. No wait. That's just my fantasy. I really haven't blogged lately because I have been preparing to teach, teaching, answering questions at the reference desk, writing committee reports, applying for a grant, reading for a presentation, writing for a presentation, meeting with faculty, meeting with students, meeting with colleagues, attending training, planning for next school year (yes August will be here all too soon!) Well they say staying busy helps make the time pass more quickly and what better way to make those cold winter months fly by. But alas, it leaves so little time for the fun things. Like this. (Sigh.)

I blog, I chat, it became a part of me

So I set up an IM account and asked for buddies but my buddies didn't respond. Come on buddies! This won't work if you ignore your buddy requests!
