Twitter Updates

April 28, 2008

In the sidebar on the right you see a blue box that says, “What am I doing…” That small feature is called Twitter. I’ve gotten a few emails from people asking about it and what exactly it is. Basically, Twitter is just a site where i can send very short (less than [...]

Going back to the classroom

April 21, 2008

Teaching only two days a week leaves me with a lot of time in-between classes. It’s just enough time to get other things done and relax a little. It’s just enough time to feel like every time is the first time.

joy.
redemption.
peace.
comfort.
adventure.
understanding.
love.
