Need help. Feel like a dumb ass

Trying to add a site feed - or, one that works. Right now, if you click the lil' RSS thingy in the URL field - it gives you nada. Same as if you click the Atom link in the sidebar.

I've checked the Blogger help page and all it seems to tell me is that I need this in my html:

<$BlogFeedsVertical$>

Which I have, so what gives?




blah-blah-blah-ing into the void

I am just about 10 kinds of anxious right now. For various, whiny reasons. School reasons, work reasons, people reasons.

The main question I'm having today is, "am I cut out to be a teacher?"

Some days I feel good about this, some days I feel like crap about it. Sometimes I look out at them and it seems like I'm just blah-blah-blah-ing into a void and I know how much they love the teacher who teaches the prerequisite to this class and I can't help but feel that they're not getting what they want / need from me. Am I being clear enough? Can I articulate what they need to know? Do I even know what they need to know?

I feel like an idiot.
