What happened today:
1. Kids atypically disrespectful. Even my docile first period kids were way too talkative. I need to start being a mean bastard.
2. I had to put two kids out. One of them decided to just up and leave from her assigned spot.
3. I left my classroom in a mess; there are papers everywhere and I just cannot handle my workload effectively.
4. I rushed to Towson, readied my project, wrote my bullshit essay, and got done just in the nick of time.
5. Class started a half hour late because we couldn't the door unlocked. This would normally be great, but it meant that we had to stay until the full period of 7:30.
6. Class was long and boring, which is especially problematic since I presented over half of it. I tried to make it as exciting as possible, I promise!
7. I went back up to the computer lab to do more work and printing out because my printer at work decided to die and I have no other place to print things out.
8. I walked out to my car, at the place where I've parked every class day since May, in a place with no visible sign (even afterwards, I saw nothing), and not only did I have a parking ticket, but I had a $75 parking ticket. Absolutely ridiculous. I'm hating Towson right now with a passion.
I got home at 10:30pm, after leaving the house at 7am. What a long, long day.
Thank you, anonymous student employee of the Towson Hawkins Hall Computer lab, for letting me exceed my limit of ten pages of printouts. My kids thank you. Looking back at today's shittiness, I have to say that if it weren't for her, I'd be feeling pretty helpless right now.
Just remember, the Tigers are in the World Series. The World Fucking Series, Baby!
Alright, back in a good mood.

There's free parking on campus for customers of Bateman's, in the lot between 7800 York Road Building & Stephen's Hall. Northbound, make the left just past 7800 York, and turn into the lot w/ the watchpost. Make a show of walking to Bateman's, than wander the long way around 7800 York Road and scoot off to Hawkins. It might take a little longer, but they probably won't bust you for it.
Alternatively, there's metered parking (for Bateman's) on the lowest level of the Glen Garage (behind 7800 York Road). Sure, you'd have to have some coin with you, but it isn't monitored as strictly as the dedicated Bateman lot.
Where have you normally been parking? I don't think there's any place off-campus that you can park (except the Bateman's lot) without feeding a meter or having a resident/commuter/staff tag.
I'm sorry. I meant "except off-campus".
Okay... you win on the bad-dayness. Not that I was competing, but you win anyway....
Also, the medical parking next to Stephens/Van Bokken is free after 5:30, but that might be a bit late for you.
