My favorite English teacher in high school told me once that if the first thing you say on the first day of the month is “White rabbits,” you’ll have a lucky month. Silly, but hey — who am I to question? Welcome to March. The month of spring break, a visit from an old friend, …
celebrities among them….

feelin’ old
This kid was one of my students the year I worked at Small World. Bet he’s close to being a senior (he should be!). Wow.
egads. babies.
Last night, I had a dream that I had a dream that I had a baby. And in my dream-within-a-dream, I was happy beyond words. Until I found out that, while I was conked out from the c-section drugs, Daniel had named the baby “Michael David.” And I nearly clobbered him. Then I woke up …

Given that he and I seem doomed forever to communication via voicemail and text messaging, it’s a wonderful proposition that I could at least know the essentials of his life (A few germane examples: When’s the wedding? What, he has Internet access at home again?! And, has he …
