jdmkleini woke up with a migraine this morning. Master went out before work and got me a pill. i slept fitfully until about 10:00 and then got up because i was achey from being in bed so long. My eyes were still sensitive to light so i wandered around most of the day with sleep shades on. The pill works, almost. i still have a niggle of headache pain, but not enough to keep me from work tomorrow. i should have gone in to the office today.
i got a phone call from the Vice Dean Academic. It seems the Dean has decided it is time i stepped down. The VDAA assures me it is not because i have done anything wrong. But, he does not know for sure the reasoning behind the Dean's decision. He said he will let me know tomorrow.
i have to admit this news came as a bit of a shock. i am not unhappy about it, just surprised. i hope the Dean will have the courtesy to tell me in person why he is doing this, but it really doesn't matter. i feel relieved. i never wanted this position. i think i mentioned to the old VDAA once that i thought it should be a termed position like the chairman of a department.
VDAA asked me who i thought would be the best new director. i gave him my honest opinion, i know it will not be well met by some of the other teachers. i have no idea if the Dean will accept it or not. i don't really care. i am relieved. Next semester i won't feel the need to be the first one in the office in the morning and the last one to leave in the afternoon. i won't feel the need to come in during holidays. i will no longer loose sleep over how to do the impossible. i can be a teacher again. That's what i am. The more i think about it, the more i wish the semester were closer to being over. i am going to have one really good semester break this year. This is going to be so cool.
Now which office do i want?
