Currently re-reading “The Yellow Wallpaper” and can’t stop imagining the narrator and John as a couple on House Hunters.

Him: Look at all this natural light!

Her: Well, maybe if we could re-paper.

Him: Ha! And I suppose next you’ll want to get rid of the barred windows.

@NushPowell I feel like I’ll remember Jenny’s number when I’ve forgotten everything else.

@jackiantonovich Science is green. English is yellow. History is red (since there is no brown). Math is blue.

@Literature_Lady @calliopes_muse I am an academic who has taught at a CC for about 24 years, and *most* of the time, I feel valued. Not all of the time, but most of the time. Key factors: 1) I have the privilege of tenure. 2) I’m in California.

@S_Insley_H Great title for an anthology! Sounds like a bestseller.

@RachaelHerron Love the scenery and liked the first season a lot. Thought the second season jumped the shark a bit so didn’t go on, but then last week I started season three. I might lean in. TBD.

@Lady_Historian I really liked The Dictionary of Lost Words.

At least now there is a donation site that is just a couple of miles from my house, right next to the bookshop and the bakery.

@mk_england I think I knew what 4H was when I grew up in Indiana, but I know them both much better now as a parent in CA. I’m in a small, coastal town, but both groups are pretty big here.

Dear alma mater: I would love to give you more money. I really would. But you won’t even give me remote library access. Please consider throwing that in with the alumni perks. I do not care about the special tent at baseball games.
