Residency: Wednesday

Fun fact of the day from one of my two fabulous thesis students, Lyn Riddle, who gave her craft lecture today on the sense of place in John Steinbeck's work:  Steinbeck wrote The Grapes of Wrath in 100 days.  Gasps and groans when she told us this.

I must confess to eating a patty melt at Papa's Breakfast Nook tonight at midnight.  And I must confess that it was awesome.  Furthermore, I must confess that scotch may have been involved earlier in the evening.
