best laid plans

World of Warcraft is taking a back seat today, because my 93-year-old grandmother’s health has taken a turn for the worse, and she had to be moved to the hospital last night (she lives in an assisted living facility here in Rochester, but had taken a fall two weeks ago and was in the rehab unit at the affiliated nursing home).

As a result, I’m actually teaching a class today to cover for my mom, who’s over at the hospital—it’s an experimental writing class, so I’ll be talking about online narrative forms. God bless you, Jill, for putting so much great stuff online!

I'm so sorry about your grandmother - but I'm pleased that my stuff's useful to you. And now of course I'm curious as to what you ended up teaching?

I'm sorry about your grandmother, I hope she recovers. I just wanted to say how impressed I was at the idea of a multigenerational teaching team. That's pretty cool.

Yeah, the idea is really good - we had the same in our school!
