Orlando Jones skyped with my class today.

I just. WHAT.

Some of you no doubt remember what happened last year: One of my students tweeted Orlando Jones, he responded, epic hilarity ensued.

This year, I put readings by and about Mr. Jones on the syllabus: A Daily Dot piece from last fall about his interest in fic, an essay he wrote for HuffPo, and of course the Tumblr posts referenced

This sounds amazing. And delightful! I am so fond of Orlando Jones and the way he interacts with fandom. I'm glad to hear he is genuine about it.

I'd also be interested in hearing more details about some of what you discussed!

I didn't take notes, but I will see what I can crowdsource from my students!

and then staved off fangirl meltdown by grading papers for an hour.

That was the part where I laughed. :P

You would think that having Orlando Jones' skype address would make my life more glamorous, but it turns out... not so much. Hee.
