Sunday we woke up far from home after a wedding (and UP!), drive 5 hours through beautiful wide open farmland, home for 2 hours, flew to the southwest, drove for 3 hours up winding roads in the dark and since then I've been at a conference I've wanted to go to for many years. It's always conflicted with the women's studies conference which is now moved to Nov.
still, I'm working hard on the online classes. they only overlap for a few weeks, but the reading and responding and quizzes and keeping up is a bit much when one is very interested in all of the sessions going on.
it's more about the teaching and that serves me well. dinner last night with about 10 colleagues from the college.
also on the agenda in the next week: Chicago for a grad party and D.C. for an orientation. these online classes are both handy and heavy. July will seem easier when just one class is going on. oh, and planning for leaving early Aug. still no apartment there or information about which classes I'll be teaching.
I wish I was at your conference: one of these days, I want to get to it. Greet everyone for me!
