9/15: one for each time of day

morning: I don't teach Thursday mornings. It's my catch-up time. It's also my time to feel like I don't have to watch the clock while I'm talking to colleagues.

afternoon: Good observations from my Latin students about chapter 2 of the Book of Ruth (we're reading and interpreting the Vulgate version, which I love). The students interpreted certain aspects of it in very keen ways.

evening: When I pulled into the driveway at twilight, Chris was watering the plants outside. He had just finished watering the basil, and its smell filled the air.
