Grading



I was up late grading papers and doing paperwork.  I got a late start because I have had a headache this weekend.  The headache do seem to be coming once a week, and lasting about 48 hours, and not once a day and never really stopping, so I guess that is an improvement.  Anyway, tomorrow will be a busy day of grading more papers because I didn't get finished.  Honestly, the one thing I truly hate about teaching is the grading.  It either gets terribly monotonous, or I get frustrated with student's lack of ambition.  Yes, the students themselves can sometimes be a handful and dealing with them can be stressful but like all teachers, I live for those moments when you see the lightbulb appear above their heads when they understand something for the first time.

Sorry for the grading and monotony! But its good that your headaches are getting a little better at least. I hope they continue to do so. :)

Chris, I do have cluster headaches. I was only diagnosed with them a month ago, and my new medicines seem to help. The frequency is down greatly.
