Grading Blogs~~~

~~~is tedious.  I have to do this at one setting, and those have been hard to find lately.

So here it is, Friday afternoon.  No meetings.  No interruptions.  No one is on Logansport campus except the people downstairs in the main offices and those in the LRC. 

No one is bothering me. 

I have nowhere to be, no one expecting me, no interruptions....until 4:30.

I have been sitting in my office with all of  the scoresheets open on my computer screen. 

I need to keep the blog list handy so I can check names.  For some reason I can't remember who Nine Lives, so each time that name pops up on a response, I have to check the list before I add the points.

Here's the process:
Open the blog.
Find the scoresheet.
Read the posts and record date and points and a little notation to remember which post I read.
Read the comments on each post, and as I do, bring up the appropriate score sheet to record the name responded to, the date, and the points. 
Rinse and repeat.
Wait.... no rinse.  How about click and repeat.
Read an entire blog and record the appropriate scores, close the blog, and move to the next one.
Heaven help someone who stops by to visit me.  He/she will be ignored.
If the phone rings, there will be no answer.
No interruptions until I finish.

All of them are graded!  Whew!  And they were great!

If you haven't read them, click on the titles at the right and read through the blogs.  I really enjoyed them, but I didn't comment today because that would disturb the flow of grading.

Sigh.

But it is done and I am happy!  Great posts, people!
