My summer's winding down. This might be the reason I feel so lazy right now, knowing that in less than a month I will be back to work.
I work as an associate professor at Northwest Missouri State University. I don't know how professors are regarded in Europe (where some of my more regular readers reside), but in the US they're widely regarded as suspicious characters who subject their students to arcane knowledge such as how to think critically and use unbiased data to draw conclusions from.
I have one last hurrah before I go back to work (which has the added bonus of keeping me out of beginning of semester meetings) -- my annual gig at New York Hope moulaging. This also includes train travel with a sleeper car and hanging out to write in the Metropolitan Lounge in Chicago's Union Station (waiting for my connector train).
But I have a couple weeks before then, working on classes before the semester starts and writing (I need motivation!) and resting before things get crazy.
