1. does anyone else fall victim to target? i go there and the money falls out of my pockets. i might as well just drive by and toss it in the door or around the parking lot. it's ridiculous. things don't cost that much but when you add them together, wow.
2. i had to get my dad to help me with a paper. this degree shmegree i'm working on has a cognate which i should have made like art history or something where i just memorize. instead it's this curriculum stuff which is of high importance to my job and my existence in public education but not interesting to me. at all. i like to read about how kids learn to read. that's not interesting to lots of people, right? remind me of that. so my dad had to help me with a paper. picture us on the phone and he's reading it out loud and we're fixing stuff as we go. we're reading and reading and he reads this sentence, For Giroux, in order for a person to be critical, she must have at some point acquired the language for what is achievable. I do not by any means think this is an exceptional sentence. at all. and he says, "is that a quote? that sounds like a quote. are you sure you didn't read that somewhere?" so this creates panic because do you ever wonder when you reread papers if you are the person who really wrote it? or is it just me? sometimes i write stuff and then forget i did it. it's like driving somewhere and not remembering how you got there. but again, i don't really think this sentence is that good and doesn't sound like i quoted it even. but instead i looked in all the books and articles just looking for the word achievable. that's not a hard word so i'm confused about why he thinks i might of plagiarized. but now i'm afraid that i did plagiarize and so i probably won't sleep good tonight.
3. will bought a 210 gallon fish tank. it's in my house. enough said.
