Continue reading →: Level 53In the middle of a recent lunchtime academic conversation, I made the joke that I’m a level 53 human. It got the expected laughs from the much younger crowd (most folks in an undergraduate program are substantially younger than I am), but even as I enjoyed the geeky RPG joke,…

Continue reading →: A Child’s BirthdayOn this day, a certain number of years ago, during what most people would consider a lunch hour, my oldest daughter was born. While it probably won’t be too hard for you to figure out who that is if you really want to, I’ve tried to make the habit stronger…
