Conferences

This has been the week of conferences. I say this because I booked my flight to Pittsburgh for NCTE in November, considered submitting a proposal to CCCC in Chicago this March and have spent half of this week in an actual grading conference sponsored by the NWP. This last part was a riot. We had fifteen people--most of whom are fellows of the NWP--grading under the guidance of four or so of my best friends in SB. We rocked it out! Plus it was on campus, included lots of coffee and snacks and I got paid to do it!! Great way to spend a few days if you ask me.

So now I'm off to my weekly brain dump session with MB. Instead of meeting at the Starbucks in G-town, we're hanging out at Northstar coffee on State. I mention this so that our stalkers are able to join us even though we've switched venues.
