Just finished Jess Walter’s So Far Gone. Feels good that I can still count on him to use fiction to express so many inexplicable feelings that so many of us are experiencing right now.

We swapped our required reading book from Lord of the Flies to Of Mice and Men (thank god) which gave me more time, so now I’m also doing A Raisin in the Sun in semester 1. I need a second novel, short, female author to contrast with Antigone for semester 2. Any ideas?

When I was younger, I thought the main message from the story of Daedalus and Icarus was about Icarus not listening to his father, but now I see that it’s as much about Daedalus’s hubris and thinking that humans should be able to fly.

Stockholm, you’re excellent. And expensive. But excellent nonetheless. I’ve gotta get my money up!

Cross posting because I can’t get over how “put together” my face looks by simply getting my eyebrows threaded.

Cross-posting because everyone needs to see one of my favorite things as a teacher: when my students use me as a character in their work. 💫

Antigone is such a short play, but it’s packed with so many A-ha! moments, it was kind of startling to come back to it as an adult.
