I'm doing 24 things
and not plans. This is good for me because I usually don’t accomplish things on my crazy time line then I feel bad when I don’t hit my target. So on tomorrow’s list is to hit the UNO library because they have a book I need, which means a two hour round trip. To top it off, I can’t check the book out without leaving a $100 deposit, which is ridiculous, but since I’m not a student there, I guess they have no way of claiming the funds should I abscond with a book on the roots of constructivist educational practice. I’m sure they have that problem with a lot of insomniacs. I am waiting on a dissertation from Florida State (which will have to go to MN before it comes here to New Orleans, and then they will charge me an arm and a leg for postage). I am hoping that it contains THE formula for my methodology! If I can use someone elses methodology, I might be able to move forward . . . July MUST NOT BE WASTED!!!!!!!

How I did it: Read my other responses on this, it was one heck of a big project which boiled down to an hour in front of a review panel who simply said, "good job." Ironically, I work in private school so I don't even need the license, except to say that I can legitimately make 70-125,000 a year with that license, so they are underpaying me at my current school. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Working a little at a time and then spending a week blitzing it by doing a million reflections over Easter break and Thanksgiving break. There is a 150 character minimum for this box and I have nothing more to say. Read how I did it…
I really should and could ask for more. At this point I am $30,000 underpaid and I think we all know it. I will definitely look in the Spring of 2010, especially if some things that were promised to me don’t come to fruition.
