rebeccmeisterS is back! We were able to sit > 6 feet apart outside and see and hear each other directly, and even got to split a beer.
He is going to stay in Princess TinyHouse for his 14-day quarantine, and so far he reports that TinyHouse is bigger than the roomette on Amtrak, so that's something, I suppose. We've arranged for a cleaning protocol so he can come inside and use the bathroom and shower while I'm out of the house at work. And then he's going to go to a campground for a while and enjoy some forest bathing, as 'twere.
Emma's continuing to enjoy the goat cheese, and is eating some of the wet food and some of the dry food. I'm skeptical that she's managing to get enough calories, but the best I can do is try to increase her cheese ration at this point.
My back doesn't feel perfect, but it definitely started to feel better today, too, so that's progress.
I still have too much to do by way of course prep before Monday. But at this point in the day, that's a tomorrow problem.
I at least got three shorter videos and one longer video recorded today. I think it's really good to have shifted these biochemistry lectures to videos instead of in-person lectures. It is just so much better to be able to "chunk" the information into a series of shorter videos instead of making a group of students sit through 75 minutes of this stuff. I've also gotten a whole lot better at explaining this stuff in this third iteration than back in my first iteration.
Also, huh. I haven't posted any photos in a little while. This is a very random set.
Office plant collection of the now. Yep, two of the rose stems eventually put out roots!
Callus check from Monday:
I haven't rowed since last Monday, so my hands are starting to get soft already.
Kangaroo Cat from this evening:
This is my life now, making organic chemistry models out of modeling clay and red toothpicks, and then filming the result:
I'm concluding that the hot pink dahlia was an excellent investment this past spring.
Did I blog about quaxing this sand to campus last weekend? It was heavy.
The garden has been doing all right. I'm enjoying it while it lasts.
