Today was unbelievably productive. In addition to snuggling, etc., I ran a few miles, worked legs at the gym, sat in the steam room, read McGrane's Beyond Anthropology, read another 50-or-so pages of Djuna Barnes' Nightwood, and finished the long day by reading the article I assigned my freshman tomorrow, "Fighting for Our Lives," about the way that U.S. public discourse so often utilizes metaphors of battle, war, and games that it's inhibiting our ability to imagine a world outside of binary oppositions. I'm going to reintroduce the term "binary opposition," a term we've discussed a few times, and then throw "continuum" at them at around 8:25am. Welcome back.
Tomorrow after class, I gotta print a copy of my tax forms and be sure they're postmarked by tomorrow, then I got an orthodontist appointment to be fit for my retainers! My inner-dork is uberstoked.
For now, the sleeping. Calm me, Tazo tea.
