No, I haven't fallen off the face of the earth, but it sure feels as if I have. Life gets busy spots and suddenly more time passes than one is aware of. We're nearing the end of February and I have little to report. I'm reading Huckleberry Finn again with my students and finding it as amusing and powerful as ever. Haven't seen any movies lately--except I watched Sense and Sensibility on DVD not too long ago--because I'm completely caught up in the Olympics. My father was a huge fan of the Olympics, and now every time they're on, I feel so close to him and his memory. I can remember watching with him when I was just a girl, and in 1972 we visited the Munich Stadium before the Summer Games of that year (so vivid in my memory because of that trip and the sad events of those particular Olympics). I love the Olympics, but I really miss the way they used to cover all the athletes, instead of just the US. OK, they always had a US slant, but we heard so much about other athletes as well.
Stay happy
