1. It occurs to me that if I want to increase traffic on my blog I should mention naked women more often. This way people using search engines to find naked women will find my blog instead. Of course, they will probably be disappointed because I don't actually have pictures of naked women on my blog. And I doubt that people looking for naked women who find my blog instead will say, "Who needs naked women? This blog with random ramblings about hip-hop music and gay Mormons is much more interesting than naked women." So it would be a little deceptive of me to mention naked women frequently just so that people using search engines to find naked women will stumble upon my blog. So in conclusion I will not mention naked women more often.
2. I am in the midst of grading 78 4-to-6-page personal narratives and my brain hurts. Not because my students are horrible writers, though admittedly a few of them are. I don't mind the bad writing because most of them have interesting stories to tell and interesting insights, bad writing or not. And they're learning to be better writers--that's the point of the class. It's just that I'm a slow reader and this is taking me forever. And it does really bug me when students ask me to read their drafts ahead of time but then they don't bother to make any of the changes I recommend, not even the simple typos and grammatical errors I mark clearly for them. Grr.
3. It occurs to me that the concept of #1 is not all that original. Surely someone has done it before. So I rescind any cleverness points I gave myself for coming up with it. But I'll post it anyway. Naked women.

You're only doing this because you've started to measure traffic.
Admit it.
He already did admit it.
And I was complaining about 21 papers. . . Actually, I like grading. Maybe we should just grade during FOB this week.
Yeah, I didn't think it required explicit admitting. But I do admit it.
Editorgirl, your mouth should be washed for suggesting that we do anything besides fob during fob this week! But thank you for defending me to that mean old Th.
Or your fingers, I guess, since you typed it rather than said it. Unless you speak out loud while you type. Then wash your mouth too.
There is only one naked woman that you are allowed to look at, and we don't have any pictures of her, so I guess it's a moot point...
Do you really want the type of people who look for naked women to come to your blog? I mean, let's think about this for a moment...
