I Haven't Given Up

In spite of the previous post, old time readers know that I really enjoy going to academic conferences (blank stares or not), although I do have a "love and hate" relationship with them. ;-)

In spite of all my real and imagined "woes," I have to admit that I'm a lucky adjunct. As it turns out, the department where I'm going to be teaching one class is pretty generous will give me funding to attend an academic conference!! That hasn't happened in seven years!!! So I think I've decided on the one I'm going to. See? I haven't given up just yet.
