A Current List
Due to the current circumstances of my life, there's not much that's really postable. Let's just say my life is in a whirlwind and not the good kind. Wanting to take time off from checking papers, however, I've decided a nice little list would fit the bill. Since I am very much living in the now, here's a list of my currents.
My current...
1. Ringtone? The X-Files theme song. Natch.
2. Complaint-inducer? Inaccurate use of the semicolon.
3. Ailment? Whisperings of carpal tunnel syndrome. Again.
4. Hairstyle? Pulled back with a barrette.
5. Perfume? Red Door by Elizabeth Arden. Lovely and lively.
6. Craving? Calamari, strangely enough.
7. Desktop background? Jensen Ackles, in a white shirt with the first button undone. Yummy!
8. Ear worm (i.e. song stuck in my head)? I Love You More, Eminem (I hate the artist, but love this song.)
9.Stains on my hands? Red ink and white-out. (Oh, the joys of writing on things for a living!)
10. Thing on my mind? Everything and the kitchen sink.
Final thought: Lots of hard decisions and a pile of work the height of K2. Life is truly beautiful - NOT!

Hi SA, I just happened to click on your latest blog post from the "Recent Blogs" column. I didn't even realise it was your blog, have you completely changed your blog look?
Maybe you need to write a post on the correct usage of the semi colon?
I tend to make it up as I go along these days regarding punctuation, because it's been so long since I was in highschool, & I don't have a respected teacher to ask.

I just noticed you have a LOT of pictures of that guy who played Jason in Smallville season 4. Presumably the character died in the meteor shower in the season finale, but they said surprisingly little about it and never showed the body...

Hello bronwynj, thanks for commenting. I like to change my blog look every once in awhile; I'm crazy about shaking things up :) And a blog on the correct use of the semicolon? Sounds like an idea, only I know there's going to be at least two or three people who will dispute me. Such is the nature of language; however, for my students' sake, I have to pretend I am the end-all and be-all of English usage. LOL. One day, they're going to realize there are more exceptions than there are rules, but by then , I truly hope they will have grown a level of maturity where they realize in order to break rules, you have to follow them first. :)
