that's me fanning myself. it's 96 degrees and no air conditioning here.
i apologize to the hoards of faithful readers (all 4 of you) that i've been so remiss in updating this. after a rather disheartening writing group meeting, i drove to andover to begin my 7th year of summer teaching. as this place usually gives rise to new thoughts about teaching, pedagogical experiments, and inevitable insights about the possibilities inherent in teaching in small classes with long periods, i hope to shift my discussions from self-loathing complaints about my writing to brief discussions about summer pedagogy. all the while i'll continue trying to restart the alcott chapter, but i'm hoping to have some good teaching experiences to get my spirits up.
i promise no more extended vacations -- at least not this week.

thank goodness. self-loathing isn't really my thing anyway. i love summer pedagogy!
well good. i've been checking this durn thing multiple times every day. thought you'd abandoned it. hope you are having fun up there. i have good gossip on academia from dartmouth.
This is truly an action shot. Hey I hope that hand is not your climate control for the whole summer.
whew...i was afraid we broke you at writing group. sorry about that. glad you were able to escape north and i'm sure you'll find some inspiration up there in the alcott's 'hood.
you promised!
