My aunt sent this to me, apparently from an old coloring book she had that I used when I was nine. Look at that last line. I’ve been educationally ungovernable since 1982.
A workbook page for practicing writing. The prompt line is followed by an empty line for the student write the same sentence over again on their own. On the final two lines, the prompt line is followed by”This is fun to do.” But I wrote “This is NOT fun to do” below it because you can not tell nine year old Jessica what to do, workbook page!

Why does the Chronicle think the Humanities is best represented by a stack of books randomly placed in nature?
Two separate electronic articles about the humanities. The article click boxes include photos of the same stack of books — one in water and one in a field.

Our beautiful Chloe died yesterday morning. She was my constant, faithful companion through some huge changes in my life. I will miss her more than I can say.

My beloved made me coconut salmon with green beans, corn, and tomatoes for my 50th birthday. I love him. I love my children, I almost always love my work, and I always, always love being alive. I am so glad I never gave up on this life and made it here. I am overwhelmed by the goodness of right now.
