Wow, this is really happening August 24th 2023 ============================= This week it's actually hit me that I'm starting this full-time faculty job in almost exactly a month. I had to have official copies of my transcripts sent over to the school, do some other paperwork for the start of the term, &c. I spent today writing the first week of text for my online intro to logic class and I'm starting to write lecture notes for my in-person classes. It's exciting. It's terrifying. I really don't want to fuck all this up. As far as my partner Tor goes, they're actually doing better. The tooth infection has been cleared out by a pulpectomy. They're more Them than they've been in a long time. I think the infection has been making them sick for ages, even before the pain started really spiking. Hope everyone else is doing alright this summer.
