In keeping with my recent promise to myself, I need to do my writing for today.  And since it’s almost 10pm and I’ve just finished working, I figured I’d do an entry here.

This morning’s web design class went pretty well.  I had the kids take a break from working on their group project (and give myself a break as well) for something a bit more structured.  I gave them an introduction to javascript, so that they have a basic understanding and can hopefully not be completely lost when they look at some of the minimal javascript code we’re using.

It went well, and they were well behaved.  On Monday I’ll be finishing off the lecture and they’ll be going back to groupwork.  I may need to crack down on them, though.  Their groupwork has been a bit distracted lately.

After this, I bumped into a group of students with a few teachers headed to go bowling for the day.  I was tempted to see if I could join them, but I knew that even if I went, I have a lot of work to do.  It was a fun little detour from the usual ride home, though.  I finished off my usual podcast over the rest of the trip, which was enjoyable, too.

So now I’ve just put the finishing touches on my work for the day.  I’ve still got about another 5 1/2 hours to do tomorrow, but I got a lot of good stuff done today and feel pretty good about it.  Of course, now it’s effectively bed time, so I’m going to be spending my night with some tv shows in the background while I try to find a game to entertain myself, and maybe play with the dog a bit in between giving her eye drops.
