Too bad Santa didn’t bring me a man to share my bed with, but we can’t have everything. I hope that all of you had a wonderful holiday, and that you are able to get some rest today.

The above picture is what I would love to be doing today: curled up with HRH, The Queen (codename for my cat, who is named after a real queen of England), catching up on my sleep. However, it seems like there are not enough hours in the day to get it all done and get some sleep. I am teaching a new class this week, sort of. The senior honors English class at my high school is learning a subject in which I have a particular expertise. It’s part of my dissertation, and I am having a great time, actually presenting part of my dissertation to these kids (They are learning something that they would not normally have been taught, and I hope that it will bring an interest to the subject that wasn’t there before). As I said, I am having fun with it because I am finally able to teach something that I have spent years studying. However, I don’t want to go in their unprepared, so it’s taking up a bit of my time. Plus, I teach my regular English class at the same time as this class, so I have to have plenty of work for them to do while I am in the honors class this week. Ah, the joys of teaching…

This has been one hell of a long week.  I am so ready for a three day weekend.  I got home late from class last night, too tired to even make the coffee before I went to bed.  When I got up this morning, I was in a hurry and did not have time to make the coffee, so I had to go without.  It made this morning drag on and on.  I’m glad that the school day is over, and now it is time for HRH and I to take a nap.  I hope that all of you have had a great day, and I will blog more tomorrow.

If you live on the Eastern Coast of the United States and are in the path of Hurricane Irene, I hope that you will take the necessary precautions and evacuate if you are told or advised to do so.  Having lived through several hurricanes myself, including Katrina (2005) and Opal (1995), they are not something to ignore.  If you are staying and will be effected by the hurricane, please make sure that you are well stocked on water and other emergency supplies.  Please be careful and keep well informed.  All those in the path of the storm will be in my thoughts and prayers.

So this is tooting my own horn a little bit, but when I saw this, I was pretty excited about it. GayDemon’s Blog, a “porntastic blog with your daily fix of fresh gay sex and random pornographic ramblings.” featured my blog as it’s editor’s picks today and wrote a very flattering review of The Closet Professor. Check them out, (NSFW).
