It's the first day of school again, just like it has been far too many times over the past couple of years for me. How awesome were the days when each year only had one "first day of school" and not two or three. I miss those days, I really do.
I got to work nice and early this morning because I knew the Graduate Instructors were going to have copies they needed of their syllabi and other things, but much to my instant dismay, I was locked out of my desktop at work with usernames and passwords that were no longer valid. Apparently the IT guys from the Humanities Department decided it would be fun to remotely update my computer over New Year's and accidentally reset my login information. Not good, not at all. Now I have to play catch-up for the rest of the morning, and Roxy is going to have a lot more work than I had hoped she would have on her first day back to campus.
In other news, I gave the old blog a new and fresh look again as it has been a little while since I made any changes, and I was a little bored with the white space in the old design. This is just one of the normal templates from Blogger, but with a couple of color tweaks here and there. I also did some trimming of my blog list and kept mostly just family blogs and the ones I took off are now in my Google Reader so I can still see what is happening with folks.
You'll notice in the archive over on the right side that I made 10 posts in 2006, 84 in 2007 and 160 in 2008. I think my blogging goal for this year is going to be to beat my mark from 2008 and try to surpass 200 posts in 2009. That means I need to write 17 posts per month for the year, which translates into roughly 1 post every other day. I think that is a reasonable and achievable goal, especially with all of the new things in my life with Jack and impending graduation.
This semester should be smooth sailing, but I've said that before, haven't I?
