I've been diagnosed with a bacterial infection and have been ordered to stay in bed and take drugs until Monday or else my legs may fall off.
Or something like that.
I suppose I should be grading papers right now, but I'm in a snotty mood and feel it's dangerous for me to be wielding a red pen at present - especially after some of the atrocious informative speeches I've had to listen to this week. (Frankly, some of them need all the help they can get, so I'll just do a blog post instead.)
I found a video clip the other day that will give you a good idea of my teaching style. The gal in the video may be a flight attendant and I may be a Public Speaking teacher, but we're both in the same pickle: making a disinterested audience listen to dry and somewhat boring material. She tackles the problem the same way I do - with humorous patter.
Check it out:
Hope I get Marty the next time I fly Southwestern!
Have a blessed day and thanks for stopping!
