It's my birthday today (started about ten minutes ago). I am old, yo.
I'll probably spend it giving audio comments on student drafts (been experimenting with using Audacity for comments a bit this semester), working out at the gym, and maybe going out for sushi with the husband.
Also, there's some good TV coming up this week: season premieres of both Lost and Battlestar Galactica, and I actually have cable for the first time in years.
I'm Clancy Ratliff, an associate professor in the Department of English at the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, where I am also the Assistant Director of First-Year Writing. I'm married with three children.

Old as the hills!!
Happy b-day!
I literally just finished watching the BSG "Story So Far" special, and am having a Geek's Dilemma: am I more excited about Lost or BSG this week? Thank goodness I don't have to choose.

Happy Birthday!!!
Happy Birthday!!!
Happy birthday! And
Happy birthday! And (speaking as one who'll be hitting the big 3-2 in less than a year myself): you're not old.
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday!
Happy BDay
I felt the same when I hit 30 last year : )
Good choice in shows, normally those are the only two I watch, but Heroes looks interesting, Eureka is a cute show, and 4400 has some potential. It looks like the realty craze seems to be finally dying down and some decent stories are being told again. (fingers crossed)

If you're old ...
... then I'm ancient.
But have a happy birthday, anyway!
Oh, and I've never thought of audio comments on student drafts. But even though it wouldn't help me at all to receive them, I suppose there's no reason I couldn't give them. Thanks for the idea!

Happy Birthday!

Sto lat!

Besides, you're not old--as my fiance says, you're well seasoned...

Happy birthday to yoooou!
Jem and the Holograms
Have you seen the new Bitch Magazine? There's an article called "Toward a defense of Jem and the Holograms"
and Happy Birthday!
www.etoilebleu.com
YES.
That article was marvelous, and in fact, that entire issue of Bitch overall was the best issue of theirs I've read in a couple of years.
Happy Birthday, 3-2

I hope you were able to get out and celebrate if only for a minute. (and then back to the paper-grading!).
