A bit mopey to miss the total eclipse today
I admit to being a bit mopey to miss the total eclipse today, but it just wasn’t feasible — I’d have had to cancel classes, and I’ve had enough conference travel that I’ve used up my ‘teach remote’ options for the semester. Alas. Also, I’m hearing reports that it’s taken some locals five hours to

The Blowfish erotica anthology I edited back in 2005?
I am losing my mind. I was going through some old material, and realized I CANNOT REMEMBER what happened with the Blowfish erotica anthology I edited back in 2005, Blowing Kisses, to be published by Fishnet. I see a lot of blog posts where I discuss the editing process, stories I’m excited about publishing, etc.

Stories, soundtracks, and sometimes concept art
Many of my fiction writing students have taken to sending in their stories to be critiqued along with suggested soundtracks, and sometimes cover concept art. It’s adorable. 🙂

Nice to have more than 2 options
Huh — that’s interesting. There are a lot more Indian restaurants that deliver to us than there used to be. Still none of the best-reviewed ones for Chicago, except Kama Bistro, which is pricey. But nice to have more than 2 options! Are restaurants extending their delivery ranges due to the economy?

I know my audience
I told Anand as he was getting ready for school this morning that I wanted to give him a heads-up about something the school board was planning; he’s an 8th grader, and will be starting high school next year. The school board recently decided that there’s just too much learning loss over the summer, so

The kids were more excited by my bombatoast
I’m at Sprout working my shift, and it’s pretty quiet, since it’s Easter, so I’m hoping to post the rest of my Miami pics, in between trying to catch up on e-mail backlog. So much e-mail backlog, sigh. Some food pics: • I made bombatoast and bacon for breakfast one morning; the kids were delighted
