My Incredibly Unremarkable Life

This was a day for working in the archives. And I got quite a bit done. The current subject was very active in Choice, and the files and records she left are fascinating. Not only that, but she dated each and every magazine/newspaper article that she clipped. Getting things in a roughly chronological order will be a snap.

Most of the events took place in the late 80s and early 90s. I should be able to remember most of it, but I guess so much has happened since that the details are fuzzy. I do remember the coverage given to one state representative from northern LA who brought a plastic mini-baby into the statehouse as he decried abortion for ANY reason.

And I remember seeing the crowds demonstrating at the Planned Parenthood clinic in New Orleans.

Other than that, it was just an ordinary day. It didn't rain torrentially and flood the Tulane campus. In fact, it didn't rain at all.

This evening I have to get the exam for my Xavier students updated and printed out. I forgot to bring home my "homework" bag on Wednesday, so it's not too likely that I'll have their vocabs graded and ready to return tomorrow. But I will have their Greece maps ready to hand back. My first priority grading-wise is the makeup exams some of them took at the crack of dawn Wednesday. By Monday I should be all caught up.

Even with the furnace cycling on a couple of times I had two cats on me most of the night. When it is on the cool side the attraction of a warm human body is greater than that of pretending to be a wild beast in the dark.

Time to get tomorrow's exam updated.
