1/8: bluebirds

...taking a drink in the basin on the porch outside our bedroom windows.

1/7: assembling

...bits and pieces for a nonsense workshop in the coming week.

1/6: looking at

...Edward Lear's illustrations for the limericks in his Book of Nonsense.

11/5: walking on campus

...this morning with Chris. He came with me as I put up a few posters for an asemic writing workshop I'm doing next week.

11/4: good work

...by the students in both of my classes today, and some nice office hour conversations too.

11/3: finding candy

...that Chris slipped under my office door so that it would be waiting for me after Greek class.

11/2: a very, very good box

...loaned to me by a colleague so I'd have a secure place for the medieval manuscript leaves my Latin class is using this semester.

11/1: a second day

...of walking on the ridge.  I didn't manage my full hour-long walk either day, but I took detours down to the lake to snap some photos of autumn reflections on the water, and it felt good to be out in the air.  Today as I walked a car slowed down beside me:  it was two of my neighbors, who said that they had missed seeing me walk recently.
