does this guitar make me look fat?


Whew. It has been a little while since I've written~sorry for the delay, everyone! Over the past few weeks, I've been trying to squeeze the very most out of my summer that I could...because today I'm back to work! (do you hear the song "back in the saddle again"? it's running through my head...)

But the last weeks of summer were totally sublime! They've included:

  • touring Traverse City wine country with my mom and sis
  • biking along Lake Michigan
  • falling for some new books
  • meeting Doug, of Hot Doug's fame
  • trying out XOCO, the new Rick Bayless restuarant
  • Discovering "Chicago's Premier Dive Bar"
  • trying a new yoga class
  • meeting up with the girls for brewery/swirlberry girls' nights!

I definitely will be writing more about these experiences, but I had to jot this quick list, so I don't lose any them! More detailed posts to follow...

Anywhoo...today was my first day back on campus, teaching writing for the Summer Incentive Program here at Eastern. It went great. My students are splendid, and I felt like even though we went over LOTS of stuff, they hung tough and I think that bodes very well for the next few busy months.
