Progress
I am sorry for placing a picture of a sandwich at the top of this blog. It was a delicious sandwich that caused a number of comments. In fact, my students suggested I make them all sandwiches–or one giant sandwich … Continue reading

When is a Delay, not a Delay?
I was on the subway, reading a detective story, when the announcement about “an incident at track level” came over the loud speaker for the first of many times. There was a very audible groan from the people on the … Continue reading

Scenes from an Interaction on the Bus
I don’t know whether I am more observant than the average person or just lucky (though perhaps this really isn’t the term) enough to be witness to some rather odd interactions. That these things often happen on public transportation or … Continue reading

Lately my Perfect Moments seem a little out of whack. They are still Perfect, but they seem to be a little different than usual. Today is no exception. I had had a decent bus ride. It wasn’t great, but the … Continue reading

Champions Day
Today was the Raptor’s celebration parade. I couldn’t go, but that didn’t stop me from getting a taste of what was happening. My bus seemed more crowded than usual. I didn’t really put two and two together until I realized, … Continue reading

The Trees at Dawn
Today’s Perfect Moment was seeing the sunrise just begin as I walked to the bus stop. It had been a long winter and this was the first day that I boarded the bus with a small amount of sunlight. Could … Continue reading
