I listened to the Sinners soundtrack on repeat and argued with At about a lot of close readings and easter eggs in the movie... When she sent me a "Good Morning, Sinners" meme," I archly responded by reminding everyone that vampires can't do mornings. It may have been my finest moment.
No. Actually, my finest moment was when I finally stopped fidgeting with the spacing and margins on the Spring Term syllabus and hit publish. I'm so excited to see everyone in the classroom again tomorrow.
Jeanie's partner Rick was hosting a classical guitar duo concert at his home and I was looking forward to seeing Jeanie for the second time this week. But I was mistaken in thinking the concert was in the evening--it was in the afternoon. Alas, Big A had tickets to the Pistons-Knicks playoffs in Detroit, so we weren't able to make it. It was a tragic and controversial loss for the home team... (Look at me parroting stuff like I know what that means.)

Oh how fun, you got to see Engie!
Lol, vampires don't do mornings!
Nice.
That's great you got to see Engie! You were missed yesterday and I think you two would have enjoyed it. There will be another (probably not till fall!) I was disappointed about the game's outcome but I hope you still had fun! And yes, very quick on the vampire/morning comment. Well done!
Good luck with your Spring Term class. Are you traveling for it?
We caught the end of the Piston's game and were bummed they lost. We felt the refs should have called a foul on that last shot. The Timberwolves beat the Lakers so now we are up 3-1. We'll see what happens when we go back to LA this week. I'm such a band wagon fan when it comes to basketball, though. I pay zero attention until it's playoff time!
That's fun that you got to see Engie! What a full week for you!
So fun that you and Engie are hanging out some more.
I wasn't aware of the Knicks-Pistons controversy. I'm so jazzed about our Cavs, up 3-0 on the Heat!
Oh, you got some sporting done! (That’s about all I know about sports, despite attending lots of football and basketball games when my daughter tried out cheer her freshman year of HS)
YAY for an Engie meetup!
I love classical guitar. I was at a boring payroll convention once, and for the final night our entertainer was Charo, and WOW that woman can play. I got to play smug because I knew that going in, while everyone else in my group was shocked.
I am so stressed looking at all those people! So many people! In one place! I fear COVID has permanently changed me.
What delicious arena food did you eat?
The Cavs are A's true love!
LOL on "sporting," J! I don't know anything about sport, or classical guitar--but I'm very good at listening to new music. Off to YouTube Charo...
Engie--The chain name I couldn't remember was "Little Caesar's." It's Little Caesar's Arena... and I had some greasy pizza, because that's what you're supposed to do... (I'm very respectful of local customs :P )
Yes, Engie :)! I'm so bummed your U.S trip isn't happening this year...
Thanks.
Thank you for keeping us on the list, Jeanie!
(Aw! Blush! Thank you!)
Steph--yes. Leaving on Saturday. Haven't even thought about packing, although I've shared "What to Pack" lists with my unsuspecting students.
Lisa, I think you get points for being a bandwagon fan. I get zero for being a poseur :)!
