Oh, hello hello hello. Many of you do not know me. I'm LMB and I used to post here all the time until Life got in the way. I've found that I have *some* internet time here at work and I miss this site greatly. I just wanted to say hello and give big hugs to Randall and whomever else might remember me and forgive me for not showing my mug around in a while - and to say hello to those of you who I don't know. It's exciting to see so many new names! *Well, new for me.*Have a great day! LMB IP: Logged |

Hi, LMB, I know who you are, I have read your posts. I remember that you've had a little book store but you had to close it, right? You are a Taurus, right? how is life going for you? Are you still in the book business? I'm a librarian and although I've tought about going into publishing or book selling, I have never had the guts to say goodbye to my 'steady' but low paid job. I admire you for your courage to go with your heart. Have a great day! IP: Logged |

Hi everyone! What a nice welcoming. I'm out of the bookstore biz right now, though I miss it terribly. I work at a small bed and breakfast and find myself obsessively organizing the bookshelves in each room. This Fall I return to school for my 2nd year in my MFA Poetry program. Last year I taught a creative writing class and just loved it. I really blossomed as a teacher by the second semester. However, (thunder rolls...) this year I have to teach Freshman Composition: Theory of Argument. BLECH. I'm not a good lecturer, you see. I love the workshop setting, supporting the other writers and suggesting how they could improve, but standing up there alone, in front of those scared/eager/drunk/bored freshmen (however they are).... so i'm really nervous about that. But other than that, I'm doing well. Look forward to reading more. LMB IP: Logged |

hi lmb,thanks for the updates. college freshmen can be boogers. (i was one ) though, it doesn't sounds like theory of argument is a GE class . . . am i right? so then the ones who are in it could actually want to be there or . . . it could be the only class they could get into if the other ones are filled. good luck though! i am doing good. just being a good girl, working hard and swimming 4x-5x a week. i am learning a lot about how to evaluate corporate stock at the moment. it's interesting cheers, aphrodite IP: Logged |
