In Need of Warmth
It’s been a little while since I have seen you. You’ve been hiding. I knew you were there, but I didn’t feel the need to bother you. I am glad you were there, but I was also quite happy to … Continue reading

Respect
I write a lot about my students because they give me a lot of material to work with. As we finally embrace winter, the questions begin. Is February warmer than now? How long does winter last? Is Montreal warmer … Continue reading
