9/19: coming across
...the work of Beni Montresor online. I was able to read one of his picturebooks (The Witches of Venice) through archive.org, and I ordered a (rare) copy of a book he illustrated back in the 60s (Sounds of a Summer Night by May Garelick). I've been under the weather today, so I appreciated the delight of his imagination and aesthetic.
9/18: having a breakthrough
...about how to approach a project I'm supervising. It came as such a relief.
9/16: talking about accents
...in the beginning Greek class. One student came up with a good short-hand way of referring to the scenario when a long penult has to be accented with an acute rather than circumflex because of a long ultima: they called it "power sharing," which was perfect.
9/15: listening
...to an audiobook this morning while I was getting ready for work. It was nice to have a kind of company.
9/14: another anthem
...and this time for Monday. As I was driving home this afternoon I heard The Bangles' "Manic Monday" on the radio.
9/13: fitting in
...some baking amid work and other frustrations. In the morning I made my blueberry baked oatmeal for the week ahead. In the afternoon I made a chocolate-pepper-pecan galette.
