2. Spring semester's coming up. Hard to believe I've already completed a fourth of the MFA program. It's also a little hard to believe that I've taught a semester of freshman composition. Heading right into my second semester of instructing come the 23rd of January.

3. Have made excellent and exciting friends.

4. The winter is biting. Still, not enough snow. Apparently, the negatives are approaching.

5. Transient life is transient. ]]> http://strayedmusician.deviantart.com/journal/Week-1-of-Teaching-256430953 http://strayedmusician.deviantart.com/journal/Week-1-of-Teaching-256430953 Fri, 02 Sep 2011 18:29:06 PDT Week 1 of Teaching nonadult journals/personal StrayedMusician http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/s/t/strayedmusician.jpg?1 Copyright 2011-2013 ~StrayedMusician http://strayedmusician.deviantart.com/journal/Day-1-of-Teaching-255782359 http://strayedmusician.deviantart.com/journal/Day-1-of-Teaching-255782359 Mon, 29 Aug 2011 21:10:51 PDT Day 1 of Teaching nonadult journals/personal StrayedMusician http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/s/t/strayedmusician.jpg?1 Copyright 2011-2013 ~StrayedMusician http://strayedmusician.deviantart.com/journal/Underlife-255042428 http://strayedmusician.deviantart.com/journal/Underlife-255042428 Thu, 25 Aug 2011 20:09:27 PDT Underlife nonadult journals/personal StrayedMusician http://a.deviantart.net/avatars/s/t/strayedmusician.jpg?1 Copyright 2011-2013 ~StrayedMusician

Waited till morning to go out and see the damage; drove around with a couple friends to see the destruction. It was quite devastating.

Lots of leveled houses and uprooted trees. We were pretty lucky that the tornadoes didn't zip right through Whitehouse, OH (which is where I'm currently staying until the 9th of June).

I was also ecstatic to hear Donald Revell from UNLV read his poetry. I also enjoyed Claudia Keelan's and many of the other writers there. I saw Christopher Patton too at the Sheraton Hotel I stayed in. I also saw Michael Martone at the Bookfair. Truly a giant orgy for all 9000 writers.

Things move fast. Nervousness and smiles are all that come about. I think of family. It snowed today on a spring day. Things move in all confused ways. The wind in many directions, my glasses sweating. This morning, I thought, how peculiar today's weather is; tonight, I'll chase dreams and think, how peculiar this night will be. Wondering perhaps, for a long time now, that I may feel alright.
