of my last post? The first. of April. The secret to a good April Fool’s prank is that the prank has to have some element of truth and match one’s (in this case impulsive) personality.

But there was a lot of truth toward the end– I would gladly trade the experience of creating a single truly great poem for pretty much everything I’ve ever done in educational technology, but I suspect most artists feel that way about their “day jobs.” It really makes me feel grateful at having a job I actually love (most of the time) and co-workers I like working with. Imagine being stuck in a horrible job?

So, no, the I did not win the lottery (familial or otherwise) and won’t be going anywhere quite yet.
