the good news: tulip is over! i feel pretty good about the changes, even though they were very glazed over this morning. for mementos, jenn & i bought little terra cotta pots and then glued a screenshot of their project on one side and a pseudo-latin phrase on the other (mimicing latin plant classifications). then she filled the pot with shredded paper & a packet of poppy seeds (of course, tulips would have been more appropriate, but the bulbs aren't available at this time of year and poppies are the state flower). they were very cool.
now the next thing to tackle: the new faculty institute. and fall courses. *sigh*
tomorrow i will work on bricks & go to the river artists' library reception. saturday is the artists' retreat in fallbrook (thanks, risa!), sunday is chuck & susan's wedding, and monday is jennifer's birthday. whee!
