bits and pieces

in case you missed the emmys last night, as i did, heather havrilesky has a great recap for you on salon.com.  it's bound to be a lot more enjoyable than the show itself.  if she does this for the oscars too i will have been given a gift of hours of freed-up time.  heather is also the author of rabbitblog, one of the funniest blogs around.  it's on my blogroll, give it a look.

back to work today, no more spurious hurricane holiday.  kind of a relief actually to be teaching when to use simple present tense vs when to use present progressive, as opposed to sawing up treetrunks with a pruning saw.  trying to put the f'ing greenhouse back together with the mosquitoes eating us alive. and so forth.  teaching grammar in an air conditioned classroom has its definite good side.
