A teaching first for me: as I was lecturing about the Buddhist emphasis on impermanence, my pendant necklace fell apart in my hands. "Welp, case in point," I said. After class, a student offered to fix it for me. She brought it back as good as new to our next class, in a fancy little jewelry bag.

Almost got caught on my way home in what I think may have been a presidential motorcade and just FML.

I want a mashup show or movie called It Ends with the Last of Us, where Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively turn into those cordyceps zombies and that's that.

Teaching is hard. I’m having one of those days where I feel like I inadvertently made a bunch of errors leading my discussions in class this week. Why am I not perfect.

The number of students (mostly frosh!) I currently have who are asking me for further reading on the Bible as a historical text and on biblical hermeneutics is very heartening to me.
