So for the last couple of months, I've been preparing my summer course for the Intro to Ling class. I've put a considerable amount of time into this by now, as you might imagine, and was therefore utterly dismayed to discover I'm supposed to be teaching a completely different course.
GAAAAAAAAAAAH!
The worst part is that it's completely my fault - back in January, when I was looking over course design, I cleverly read the email from October that said "You're teaching Intro to Ling!" and completely forgot about the email from November that said, "Just kidding - it's the Language & the Mind course!".
So I have a course layout, syllabus, quizzes, exams, and eleven ppt lectures for a course I'm not teaching and absolutely nothing for the course I'm supposed to be teaching.
Since I have no one to blame but myself for this stupidity, I will stop having a panic attack and get to some serious course design.

But luckily, I'm not supposed to teach till summer session II.
True...but I'd feel bad for any of them that had already taken the intro class.
Egads! How much time do you have until the class starts this summer?
How soon does your summer course begin? At least you only have to have the layout and syllabus Right Away...
But since the course doesn't begin to July 11th, I have time. I was just frustrated by the amount of work put into the other course that I have to throw away. I'm not sure if people could use my stuff, since I was designing a course especially tailored to my knowledge strengths, but maybe someone in the future could....good thought, that.
And I very much appreciate virtual tea and backrub. ::the love::
