02/26/2006: "Gotta love my job"

I get to chat about Marxist Economic Theory this week. All week. That'll be great fun, and I think I'm already over-preparing my lectures (can I do this in two and a half hours?). I still haven't finished the second papers yet, so between the two, I'll be busy for the next few days. Add to that the fact that UT's spring break is next week, nobody will show up on Thursday. (I'm actually just thinking about cancelling). That means I need to get to business on Tuesday. I will indeed be very busy for the next few days, so don't be offended if I don't pick up the phone.

After that I'll want to go drinking one night this weekend, right and proper. Any takers? Look for me in an alley somewhere--and for God's sake: get me home.

I signed up for another summer class at UT. I need to start writing soon. I won't have that nice little block of time now in May/June. But, gotta feed the CEO's somehow. But, at least I get to talk about Marxist economic theory all week.
