So I’m starting a stitch & bitch group at DeVry. There are some very cool young women there and not much opportunity for them to get together or support each other, plus I think I’d like to hang out with them more anyway. We’ll see what happens. In the meantime, the green scarf is probably about 4 feet long. I’m thinking about taking it along to New Jersey later this week, but it might be a little bulky, and I think I have to get different knitting needles, like maybe wooden or plastic ones or something.

So far the new term is going well. I have a sociology class and a humanities class, and last night I accepted a professional writing class. It’s a little more workload than I would like, but we could use the money right now, and I just taught a section of professional writing last term, so it should take a lot less of my time.

Today I’m trying to get my beginning-of-the-term stuff squared away. It’ll be too heavy and unweildy to take much of that stuff with me, plus I’m probably going to be pretty wiped out come Monday morning and in no kind of shape to plan a clever, fun little class. I am, however, planning on taking stuff with me to finish my dissertation lit review.

Anyway, I’ve been getting occasional sex column questions from folks I assume are just discovering the archives. We’ve been pretty tame around here for a while, no? Perhaps next week I’ll have something shocking to say…
