Hello from the Houston Hilton North, I did not plan to be in Houston this morning, I had planned to be to my destination, although it was a circuitous way to arrive, I had booked the cheapest ticket I could, so I knew I would be in airports for the day.

The Longest Day
Good late evening (almost midnight), It has been a very long day. I left the house this morning at 7:00 a.m. and I got home about 11:25.

Furthermore, when you have two classes as well as other requirements, it is even more difficult. What IContinue reading “Summer School”
Half-way Through
Good Afternoon, I am sitting in a new coffee shop in Bloomsburg named “Fog and Flame”. One of my students just teased me saying, “just what you need, another coffee shop.” I guess there is a lot of truth to the statement that I am “a creature of habit”. I actually write the majority ofContinue reading “Half-way Through”
Time is Flying
Good Morning from the corner of Starbucks (the second one here on campus), I had great intentions of writing more systematically for a couple of reasons: first, to merely get me writing, which seems so hard to find the time to do; and second, to have a chance to get thoughts out of my headContinue reading “Time is Flying”
Here Today . . .
Good Morning, Some of you have followed previous blogging adventures that I shared on a blogsome site, but I have chosen to begin a new blog; one that is up to date and one that will focus on a number of different topics. Some of my favorite things are (and not necessarily in orderContinue reading “Here Today . . .”
