Life in late capitalism can be vexing, alienating, fragmenting, and otherwise frustrating. There are many wonderful things in my life, but I'm more likely to talk about what's bad rather than what's good. I'm going to try to post one good thing here each day, and if you would join in by adding a good thing from your day in the comments, I'd love it--I'd absolutely love it. --RR
2/6: a full day
This morning I decided, almost on the spur of the moment, to go into school to attend a few sessions of a Medical Humanities conference and hear some papers on medieval medicine. This afternoon Chris and I worked on making some valentines for friends and family, and then we took a drive to run an errand. Though our errand was unsuccessful, the light streaming through the clouds was amazing to see and made the drive so worth taking. This evening found me back on campus to see/hear some readings for the campus' 10-minute play festival. Students had written all the plays, and their work was interesting, thoughtful, and carefully constructed. One of the plays especially gave me goosebumps (which isn't easy to do). What a great combination of things to make a day.
