Self portrait


Self portrait

My friend Amity takes a lot of sel-portraits, and so in between taking pics of Ingrid tonight, I turned the camera on myself. I’m so 32.

I guest lectured in the tech in ed course today, and busted a girl texting. Busted isn’t a fair word, it was a dark room, she was directly across from me and holding her cell up at eye level. But, listen up, when I’m talking, you put the damn phone away. Well, what I said was “Excuse me, please put the phone away, thanks. I love technology, too, but I’m talking right now.” She was both mortified and pissed, but, whatever, dude! I’m talking!

Funny how even though I haven’t been in front of a middle school classroom in two years, I still have it. Sadder still that undergrads aren’t far flung from middle schoolers.

  1. Nice picture! I hear you on the texting: I had a parent texting the entire time he was sitting at my desk for parent/teacher conferences! And he wonders why his son doesn’t pay attention in class.
