Reasons to be cheerful!

Later: hunger assuaged a bit by abother chocolate-banana-cinnamon milkshake. Whole banana this time, almost had to spoon it out of the glass!

That sounds absolutely delicious. Might Have to make one when I get home

Oh, I forgot the teaspoon of molasses sugar.

Did you use any milk or anything?

Half soy milk half cold water. I have used just water, with the the full ammount of choc (two heaped t-spoons) to give it a bit of a boost, and just the milk with half the choc. This choc is normally made with plain hot water - it has dried milk in it. Takes a lioong zap in the blender to really liquidise the banana.

A second professor replied to my e-mail and accepted my plea to allow me to give 6 hrs worth of classes in her course.

I'm almost all set now.

The politics, protocols and ethics of academe would drive me crazy!

Do you have to do a set number of hours teaching to pass your degree, Silver? So you are reliant on others and, I would guess, they check on your performance before letting you loose, unsupervised, on their flock?

Yes, they drive me crazy too. Now I have to collect both professors' signatures and turn in a report to another professor who will give me a final grade at the end.

In my case, for my master's degree teaching 6 hours of classes two courses (12 hours total) is mandatory because of my scholarship, which is the only reason I'm torturing myself. Without the type of scholarship I have, to get the degree, teaching is not necessary.  The things I do for money. 

Yes, ideally I will be discussing what topics to give with the supervising professor beforehand and they will be present when I give the classes, assessing my performance and possibly taking over after I run out of the classroom screaming.

If I can get that bulldozer upright I'll pull the float. But, I think you should design the gloat itself Hermes. I don't have your artistic flair.

Thanks, but I'm just a dilettante!

Gawn! Bet you would be brilliant at designing a gloat!

Gloating is one of my skills.
