For context, the college I'm teaching (*adjunct lecturing*[^2]) at is my alma mater. I transferred there as a junior from community college, and this course is the first one I took there — with a professor who went on to become a mentor and a personal friend. She scared the shit out of me then (she still does) because she is *so good* at what she does, so experienced, and (seemingly) effortlessly incredible as a teacher. The idea that I have to, in some way, fill her shoes — teach her class, in the same room I took it, nine years later — is absolutely terrifying. Who am I to tell these kids how to teach?? I have very lovely friends who have talked me up and assured me that I'll do a great job, but I think I'll never be able to shake the feeling that I'm not doing what she would have (or not doing as good as her). Of course that's ridiculous and I need to be my own person, and it is within this contradiction that I must exist.

I've been to my classroom a few times this week getting some of the bigger projects done. I'll have time to put on finishing touches on the teacher conference days next week, but I'd rather cut open 96 tennis balls at a relaxed pace than rush to do it the day before kids show up.

I've also been spending time helping Joe get his together, too.

## Watching

Joe and I are done with *Survivor: Caramoan* and have now moved on to *Blood vs. Water*, a season I am very fond of.

## Playing
|

I played some more of *Baldur's Gate 3*. I finally decided to install some mods so that I can just finish the game. I'm using [Cheaters Spell Scroll](https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/12023) to basically pass all of my dice checks and then something to increase my carry capacity. Nothing game-breaking necessarily since I was already save-scumming every roll — instead, hopefully, I'm just saving myself *time*. It took a while to figure out how to make the mods work,[^6] mostly because the developer of the (good, but esoteric and inscrutable) mod manager has no publicly accessible documentation or help; it's all in a fucking Discord server.[^7]
