wondering if there were updates, thoughts?

I have had an amazing couple of weeks. I have been doing evaluations for the OAs and have been having wonderful conversations.

This is also the time of the semester that everyone has settled in and my students come in to chat with me, dropping by for ‘no reason’ until we suddenly find the crisis. The high-powered meteorologist struggling between pure science and broadcasting, the affected artist finally smiling b/c thereis a photomedia major now. These two appts. were back-to-back. Ava needs to be drawn from the roof’s edge, while Hally and I talk in hushed tones about art and manual labor. Molly still trying to figure out if she is majoring in anything else other than Ultimate and SUA and Bridey near graduation and freaking out.

And today I spend 4 hours with computer programmers trying to figure out how the hell they think about the same project I thought I had a handle on.

And in my geography class grad. students were giving presentations, and one of them really got it and all I could think is that I wanted to sit in a room with him and use big words. These impulses to go back to school were as strong as they have been in months, if not years, yet I had one of the most fulfilling weeks advising I can remember.

I know, no choice is definite, but they feel so present.

Indeed.
