Tomorrow's goals:
- Find a pair of pants-> iron them
- Find a tie that does not involve alcohol or sex or Disney
- Find my shoes (I spend summer mostly barefoot--winter, too, outside of school)
- Find a pen
- Memorize my student roster
- Say a prayer for the end of summer
- Remind myself the universe is beyond my grasp
- Remind myself that there is order in the universe (even if I cannot find my pants)
- Remind myself that I am only here to remind my students of the above--anything else is arrogance, nonsense, or both
Photo is "The Sun Sets at Harris Beach, 1938" from the National Archives; 1938 was 70 years ago--anyone who remembers seeing this particular sunset is more likely dead than alive. But we still have the image. And should Homo sapiens go the way of the Neanderthals, the sun will still set on this same beach.
