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
10/8: finally
The costume designer at school is also a Classicist, and I should have asked her years ago to do a public presentation under the auspices of the Classics program. I'm not sure why it didn't occur to me earlier, but in August I asked her if she would be interested in giving a talk about her research into the clothing of tragic actors in antiquity, and she quickly said yes. Tonight she gave her presentation: it was interesting, there was a nice audience, it felt good to do, and it feels good that it's done.
