Kitty Sitting...Night 1

Well, tonight is the beginning of my adventure in living alone in the city.  I'm house/kitty sitting for a co-worker until May 5th.  So far it hasn't been too bad.  I haven't figured out the TV yet though...it's an older model and has a lot more wires than I'm used to.  The kitty is friendly, but if you don't give him enough attention he nips.  He also likes to lick my hands, especially while typing.  Upside I'm not that far from the U-Village and friends.  If anyone wants to drop by and hang during the week/weekend just let me know and I'll let you know exactly where I am.  However, this Monday and Tuesday night are taken for Passover seders.

I think my LIS 550 teacher is nuts...

What I was thinking 4/3/11: My teacher for my LIS 550 class gives a ton of reading every week and then expects us to post a response to each one (this week there is 5) on the message board.  This is completely fine except all 40 students are posting to ONE thread.  This is NUTS!!  If you're one of the last people to post you have to read through so much in order to post your opinion.

4/4/11: SO...the teacher has now sent out an e-mail that we only have to post on one thread per week from the readings.  Now the threads won't be nearly as long, but seeing as my classmates and I are all very talkative they may still get long.  The teacher also commented that she's been teaching this class for 7 years and has never seen the threads get so long (about 2-3 pages long).  She'll learn quickly that our cohort always has something to say.
