I’ve never been one for resolutions but this year I think I will make it a point to tell people to stop wasting my time. Politely, of course. It seems that I can’t be nice to people without them getting the wrong idea, like giving me unsolicited advice on my career.
Kitten is a Filipino ex-pat who is trying to be a teacher of literature and who lives somewhere around Jersey or Athens. She loves both math and music, but stayed away from them as career areas in fear that she will grow to hate them. She does not understand the American concepts of power-naps and working vacations. She makes politically-incorrect jokes because they are funny and if you don't think so go get yourself a sense of humor. She believes that cooking is an art but baking is an exact science. In her high school biology class, her lab partner did all the work in frog dissection because she couldn't stand to look at the poor animal pinned to the dissecting pan. In her college biology class, she cried when she threw out her fetal pig whom she named "Wilbur." She has never completed a crossword puzzle, cheated on a test, or seen an episode of Jersey Shore.
