@sbagleyspice I have been trying to respond to emails for so long. That's probably what I should be doing while fueled by anxiety at 1 AM instead of panicking at 85 mph, but here we are.

Oops, just thought about the non-work things I need to do that are already late but I probably won't have time to do this week either. My brain needs an off switch. Or a brick.

I started this semester farther ahead than I have ever started any other semester. I am now farther behind than I have ever been in any other semester. I am so, so tired.

@howie_hua Oh, and counting is fake. Just all of it.

@howie_hua Most of the divisibility rules. And I've basically given up on understanding the Monty Hall problem at this point. 😂

I've come to realize that all of these nifty, illuminating math animations are in no way nifty or illuminating unless you *already understand* what it is they're trying to communicate.

@Jeff_Leader @LeeanneBranham @Mathgarden @Dean_of_math I guess my point is, it just saves everyone a lot of heartache if they've seen less but understood more, rather than the other way around. But I get that there are many different pressures at the HS level that I don't routinely deal with. (~fin~)

@Jeff_Leader @LeeanneBranham @Mathgarden @Dean_of_math Often, my S's were able to memorize just enough in HS to score well on standardized tests, then place into harder classes where they struggle because all they were trying to do was place into harder classes. (5/n)

Thanks for all the feedback! The general vibe I'm getting from these comments seems to be "🤷 Do whatever." And if there's one thing I can do, it's whatever.

Hey actual adults: If I did research as an undergrad (posters, no journal pubs), should I keep that on my CV now that I have real grown-up things on it?
