@amsoell Until my wife makes me stop. I think I'll keep growing it through the winter. After that, we'll see.
RT @amsoell http://twitpic.com/mm24 - The Great Beard Experiment of Winter 08/09. As promised, pic of the new beard in progress.

Happy hour with co-workers. Nothing like drinking with people older than your mom to get a party started.
The auditor in my office looks like Fred Armisen from SNL.
Basic arithmetic is lost on the younger generation. You shouldn't be allowed to flaunt your iPhone if you don't know that 2-1=1.
@amsoell I don't have my digital camera at work. I'll send you a pic when I get home tonight.
@amsoell And a sexy lumberjack you are. I'm working on a beard myself, but it has a long way to go to match yours.
Sorry to hear about the fire damage to Westmont College. Glad to hear everyone from the school is safe. http://is.gd/7SRQ
pretty sure my work study student is stoned.
@bradjward I knew about Butler, but I grew up in Indianapolis.
Student just told me she was menopausal. Wish I could say this was the first time. Menopausal women feel comfortable with me. It's a gift.
@hickersonhm Sorry. Next week I'll try to find some warm and fuzzy story about financial aid saving a puppy.
2 students today asked if they can get their spring fin aid money early b/c they're out of money and want to buy their kids Christmas gifts.
Been growing a beard. A few students noticed & gently teased me. It's nice when they're so comfortable w/ you they can mock your facial hair
Think I was just volunteered to lead a conf session on social media for financial aid pros this spring. Should be interesting.
Talking to more and more students who are going back to school to get retrained because of unemployment. Stressful times.
Just finished Peace Like A River by Leif Enger. Best novel I've read in a long time. Great story. Beautiful writing.
@AnnaChow I know what you mean. I've been rethinking that myself.
@MichaelHyatt Great advice, especially a single folder for processed mail. Multiple folders always cause me more pain than they’re worth.
