I am in a sour mood today. Grumpy, grouchy, ornery, and aggrivated.
If I had my druthers, I would spend the day upstairs in my bed, alone in the house while the family is away and drink gin, smoke my pipe, and read a detective novel.... going in and out of wakefulness, sleep, and gentle intoxication.... with NPR playing in the background.
What will I actually do today? The same as virtually every Tuesday.... work at my desk, work in my lab, and teach in my classroom. Added to that are looming deadlines for grant applications, bullsh*t deadlines for bullsh*t committee work, and all sorts general fussing and fighting within the Department here.
Sounds like fun...... bah!

I appreciate all forms of comments on my writings. I find that I miss the sponteneity of coming to read them here when they were unmoderated. I believe I wrote less due to the moderation. I have decided to adopt limited moderation. Hopefully the prior problems with unfettered comments will not arise again. Please feel free to comment as you wish about the essays I write. I will maintain those comments that offer kind-hearted and gentle opinion... be it positive or negative. The opinions of your comments will, of course, need to have relevance to the post as well.
