This blog is closed captioned for the hearing impaired

I forgot that a blog is supposed to be a narrative of events, that happen in some sort of order. I pull crap like posting once a month. Posting Part 1 but where is Part 2? I stopped caring, so I thought that I would just stop writing. I don't have any readers anyway, so the only person I am letting down is myself. Which still sucks.

I recently started watching the show Californication on Showtime, stars David Duchovny and similar to Dexter (another Showtime show that I recently discovered) I see parts of myself in the characters. The main characters in these shows are heavily flawed, and I don't think that I know how to tell others of these same flaws that I see in myself. I am not a serial killer, or a novelist, nor do I live in the somewhat exotic locations of Miami or LA.

As far as my opinion on Turn It In: I don't like it. Thumbs Down. My intellectual property is mine to protect and store, and I don't want them to have any of it. As far as I know, everything I wrote was perfect and original and that's good for me. Kudos. Should I follow through and become a teacher, I will not use Turn It In. As a teacher, it is my responsibility to make sure my kids are doing the right thing. I will not be outsourcing my job.

This might be the second, but probably the third time I am going to try and redefine this blog. A Narrative (With Color Commentary). ... I am open to suggestions about how to do this, but I might force myself to sit down 1-2 times a week and just write something. Not a bitch and moan (at least not always), but I want to look at things I consider interesting.

See you next ___________________________________
