Periodic self-explaining

I am the tree that falls in the forest; I like to think I sometimes must have a mind of winter.

What I have been doing is: volunteering at a doomed private school in Alexandria; going to China; completing another couple of semesters at St John's; working in Anne Arundel County schools, subbing, and on campus as the writing assistant for the Graduate Institute; tutoring one Swiss in English, being tutored by one Knaup in Ecclesiastes, and by a Burke in Racine's French; slowly learning Greek, Attic and Homeric; reading poetry with the undergrads on one side of Maryland Ave, and short stories with the GIs on the other; drinking wine with both; reading; writing.

Here are some new--relatively--things:

A curriculum from Tenacity

And another, with observations, from Alexandria Academy

And do check out those recommended books and sites-->

Meanwhile I will think about rounding up some people to hear me if I make a sound, and if not, how best to hibernate til spring.
