My evenings just don't seem long enough. Boo. Its the worst on Tuesdays and Thursdays when I teach until 5. By the time I get home, make dinner, and eat it it seems like the whole night is gone. Especially if I have to stop at the market or run any errands on the way home. If I have lectures to write or papers to grade that takes me right up ( Read more... )

Anyone reading the "new" Tolkien book?

I love Sundays. They are the best. Today we slept in late. Made breakfast. Lounged around and read. We ran some errands and then decided to try this Greek place out for dinner, and it was really good. Its the only good Greek place we have found out here.

I love marrow. All marrow. I love the marrow from lamb shanks, I love the marrow from ham bones, and I love the marrow sucked from the veal bones roasted off for demi glace. It makes me sad that marrow has fallen out of favor as a delicacy. When we pick out silver we are totally going to get marrow spoons.

On March 21st, I will testify before Congress on the immediate action that needs to be taken to end the climate crisis. Help me fill the committee room with 350,000 messages.
