So I am still lazy, retyping old lesson plans I wrote up expressly for the purpose of applications last year, and about to reread my personal mission statement in education. That sorta thang. It's depressing, that I can only write lesson plans on demand.

Today has been lazy, mostly napping and taking in the news and all that. I made dinner for a Joephet who has yet to arrive.

Ah, yes. My roommate Errol had a turtle for dinner. And not as a guest.

Meanwhile, I reread Green Lantern, Dragon Lord, which is about a Green Lantern who is yellow. And this is funny because the power of the Green Lantern does not work on yellow objects (why not red?). So it's hard to see how this Dragon Lord fella would be superpowered at all. But aside from a large quantity of incongruous Zen nonsense and an evil Emperor for who some reason eats grubs and worms and maggots and such, and of course the patriarchal oppression and commodification of women, and an evil scarred general, who bears more than a passing resemblance to the evil Klingon General Chang (who himself is inexplicably a starship captain), the only remarkable moments are unthrusting Chinese sex on a magical green flying carpet.
