Sunday of my Life

Thanks to the good graces of one of my good friends, I was recently offered a teaching position as a lab assistant for my University. Did I accept? Did I ever!

So last night I had my first real lab, with an unexpected preamble. I was asked to take over someone’s tutorial, just for last night. It wasn’t a terribly long time to prepare, but I don’t think that I did too badly. The students certainly seemed to enjoy it.

(As a side note? When it comes to teaching give me adults every time. Give me people who actually want to be there. Give me people who actually have maturity, and who know how to ask the right questions.)

Because of this, though, I ended up missing my train home, and got home near-on midnight. Needless to say, with a start at 6:30 the next morning, I was a little tired today.

Okay, I was a lot tired today.

Getting off the train tonight, I was getting some funny look. Now, I’m no stranger to people looking at me in a funny way. Been happening one way or another for most of my life. But this caught my — somewhat addled — attention. I didn’t find out why exactly people were staring until I got back to the car. See, my usual winter attire includes two coats. Otherwise, lately, I’m just too cold for comfort.

It turns out that, since I was tired and wasn’t paying attention, I’d zipped the left side of my inner coat to the right side of my outer coat. I think my father only just finished laughing at that.

…

Nope, there he goes again.
