I just gave the worst...lecture...ever...
So sleepy. So very, very sleepy. I should've gone to bed two hours earlier last night. Maybe I could do the little-sleep thing when I was a strapping young undergrad, full of beans, but I am old and worn now. I need a good solid eight hours. My delivery was fumbling, my expositions disjointed and rambling...A disaster. An utter disaster. I will not let this happen again, I can tell you. I take pride in my work. At least, I do when I'm not screwing it up.
On the bright side, the Belle and Sebastian concert is tonight. That will wash the acrid taste of substandard performance from my mouth. (One of my students will be there. What if I bump into him? While I'm full of gin and rock? Will my instructorial dignity survive? Do I even have any? These are the questions that plague us...)
Now I will drink my tea and beat myself up on the inside.
I made Octopus Jesus cry.
