I’m listening to The National and laying on my floor because my bed is covered in clothes that are not yet folded. I am feeling like a laundry pile of a human being.  Haphazard and amorphous. It’s a sand pit of a feeling. Hard to get out. I saw a movie that was too dark. I have things on my mind that make my brain twitchy and anxious that I don’t want to think about right now, but I can’t shake’em. I hate that my head works this way.

people vs. Role Models

This week has left me cynical and critical of individuals whose work I greatly respect and admire. It hurts to see these falls from grace. How can such rotten people be disguised as brilliant, inspiring role models? I guess it was my mistake to put anyone on a pedestal.

I can only approach this as a learning experience. This is one way that I will NOT conduct myself with my colleagues and students.
