3/31: reading
...Robert Bagg's translation of Sophocles' Women of Trakhis in preparation for class this afternoon. It's not one I've taught with before, and it was nice to read it at home with coffee in the morning before heading to school. I think students did well with it, too, so I'm glad I made the change.
3/28: having a nice talk
...with one of my advisees about their schedule for next year. It's not an advisee who has come to talk with me much, so I was especially glad that we got to spend some time together this afternoon.
3/26: a full draft
...of a pamphlet I've been imagining for awhile. It still needs some work, but at least it's not just in my mind any longer.
3/25: outdoors
...for a lot of today. I walked in the morning, sat on the porch for part of the afternoon, went to an outdoor birthday celebration for one of our neighbors in the late afternoon, and visited the dock at sunset.
3/24: a variety
...of good things:
Sweeping the floors and tidying my home office.
Doing some erasures of pages from Homer and from Twain.
Walking down to the lake to watch a colorful sunset.
Downloading and working through the photos I took at the lake. (Photo-processing time has been weirdly hard to come by recently.)
Seeing that folders of old emails that I thought had been a casualty of my email provider's transfer to a new platform were suddenly restored after a few weeks of being missing.
