Today was the first day of my pedagogy classes. So far, so good. Nothing earth-shatteringly new was learned today, but I like having started. I have to admit that I'm nervous. I want to be a good teacher, but I realize how easily I could fail my students in so many different ways. I never worried this much about IT projects or insurance crap. I guess I care.
Anyway, I have a few things I want to write about, but don't have a lot of time at the moment. First order of business is a new restaurant review; I found good Thai food in Austin! Madam Mam's is the best I've had outside of CA and deserves the full treatment. This will come in the next post.
I've also been contemplating the wild swirl of contradictory ideals, beliefs and tendencies that is my life and how best to make sense of it all. The pseudonym has given me a lot of freedom, which I've reveled in, but of which I haven't made much productive use. My mind wanders, I waffle about what to post, and then up posting nothing. So, in the name of self discovery, I'm going to quit searching for a guiding theme and let this blog reflect me a little better. Hopefully this will result in more posts.
I also want to discuss the Texas and Oklahoma phenomenon known as the sausage kolache. This monstrosity needs its own post, too. Also up for future discussion are recent energy and economic issues (these should really be on a revived Dilettante Blog but to hell with it) I'll try to keep them brief.
I'm going to try to add some sort of structure, too, but more on that later.
