Slow learning curve
Friday, April 10, 2009 at 10:16AM I not quite sure when I ate my first piece of pizza, so I can't quite give an exact number, but I think it's safe to say that I have over thirty years of pizza eating experience. So why is it that I invariably burn the roof of my mouth every single time I bite into a hot pizza? Fortunately, the pizza delivery guys around here sensibly take their sweet time, otherwise I'd have layers of scar tissue in place of a palate.
So it should come as no surprise to me that I am unable to maintain the same level of posts and responses during the height of tour season as I was able to before. And yet it does. No, I thought, I'll just write up a few responses when I get to the hotel. At 11 pm. After fourteen hours showing eighth graders around town. With a 5:30 wake-up call in. On the computer in the hotel business center. No problem, sure I'll have to cut down a bit, but I can keep this same pace up.
Well, like my burned mouth, I've once again failed to anticipate blindingly obvious. So I am going to have to reduce the amount of posts I'm able to write. I'll be working no less than four days a week, and generally more, until mid-June, so readers will notice a bit of a drop off. I'm sure I can manage at least one a week, but we'll see where we go from there. We'll pick back up this summer, once the school kids head home.
But please, feel free to keep the questions coming. It might take a few days to get back to you, but I do answer every question, and post many of them. And feedback from trips is particularly helpful in gauging how accurate and helpful my advice is. I particularly want to thank those that post tips in the comments so everyone can see them.
