(As of September 2025)

Teaching

  • AP English Language and Composition – Had a good start. Making mistakes, learning from them, and improving as a teacher. My students are thoughtful, find, and patient. Quite the hardworking bunch!

Watching

  • Neon Genesis Evangelion – nope
  • Steins;Gate 0 – nope
  • Works of Satoshi Kon – ‘Perfect Blue’ and ‘Paprika.’ Would recommend both quite highly.

Playing

  • Go – A little bit.
  • Guitar – More than a little bit.

“Just Because”-ing

Pondering

  • What “sacrifice” means and what makes it worthwhile – Learning through application. Tough.

Thanksgiving

  • Times and memories I have had with things, people, and animals I love but must step away from – Let go of Rags this month, and found a room to move into. 
  • Hot drinks on cool evenings – Including drinks that make you warm. 😉
  • Calls and messages from friends after a long day – Just…amazing. 🙂
