I started off writing a post that tried to address the following points:
- Dropping off the face of the blogosphere for several months
- Last semester
- This semester
- Writer’s block
- Post-writer’s block brain overload
- 2012 going out “not with a bang, but a whimper.” (If you don’t know that reference, you ought to be beaten until you can recite “The Hollow Men” backwards and forwards–especially if you’re into Downton Abbey.)
- Downton Abbey
- Concepts of being a Lady (see above)
- The creation and conception of students’ and teachers’ public and private selves
- Some other stuff
As you might imagine, that turned into a really long, rambling post that probably could be broken down into several essays, or be a really obnoxious, self-indulgent post. (Possibly both.)
Point being, I’m back in the real world, I’m writing again after a six-month drought, and this was probably the most notable thing I did last semester.
