4/17: talking

...with a student about a summer research project.

4/16: smelling

...flowers in the wet air this morning.  More red roses than we've ever had blooming at once, and the start of honeysuckle.

4/15: egg lemon soup

...for the third dinner in a row.  We used to have it often, but then I stopped making it.  I won't wait years before the next batch, but I will try a vegan version.

4/14: a not so bad time

...doing our state tax return this afternoon.

4/13: sipping

...a drink of iced coffee with lemonade, talking with a friend, and not thinking about some pretty big worries for 2 hours.

4/12: two

...bits of nice feedback about my teaching today.  One from a student who was in a course with me last semester and called the class "joyous."  Another from a student who has been taking Latin with me all year and said that they stuck with it because of the way I teach.

4/11: the second day

...in Myth class for the old reading assignment that I split into two this year.  It went well.  A successful experiment.

4/10: writing

...the directions for a new final project that I'm trying out for my Myth class.  I'm pleased with myself for coming up with something innovative (and, hopefully, interesting), and I'll be excited to see what the students come up with.
