A few musings from Kansas by a high school literature teacher. Over the past few months, this blog has turned a commentary on media. I will probably continue to focus on film and television, but books and music might sneak in... By the way - If you would like me to post on a regular basis - please comment, even if it's just to say, "Hi." If my audience disappears, I lose the motivation to write! Thanks!
My friend, the amazing Blythe Lane, is here in Manhapnin' until Friday. I know that there are a few of you that mentioned wanting to get some coffee with her or something. If you are game - comment! I have no idea if any of you are in town this week.

I am a Literature teacher in Kansas. Currently, I am wondering if it is possible to communicate a passion for Lit in a way that my students will catch the same passion...or any passion for that matter! :-) (Ahh - the joys of communicating a deep love of language to high school students with the added challenge of quite possibly having the worst spelling in the history of English teachers. ) :-)

Well, I think it's entirely conceivable that I might have to have counseling if no one responds! I can't believe you'd do this to me as your best friend...hmmpf.
Well darn it! I wish I was there. You KNOW I'd have coffee with you two.
I'm headed back into town so coffee will be a for sure!
Jill and Alethea,
I just have to say that dinner and coffee last night was lovely. Loved swapping heart and felt refreshed by laughter...thanks for blessing my soul.
I'm enjoying a nice cup of coffee right now while I'm sitting at my computer reading this blog. Poe (my new Weimeraner puppy) is laying on my feet. Blythe Lane, consider this me having coffee with you and Jill Pole! BL- Take care of my big sis and give her a huge bear hug from me. - Dave
