Some days you’re the shoe…
…some days you’re what gets scraped off. Today has been absolutely craptastic. Really the last 24 hours or so. Little stuff, to be sure, but none of it uplifting. I got a visit from the micromanagement fairy at work and got to spend twenty minutes changing grades…to the same thing they started out as. (Let’s just say that putting restrictions on how math teachers average grades is like me telling the New England Patriots to only throw slant routs.) Then came the twin form rejections from Digital Science Fiction and Asimov’s. Then there’s personal stuff that’s none of your business, but it’s unhappy, too.
I’m ready for silver linings. Better yet, acceptances!
Until then, I await June with the end of school and the coming of ConCarolinas.
Scott,
Dude. The silver lining is that you know us!!! You’re well-loved in the community. Sooner or later you’re bound to break through.
