I just got back from France (10 pounds heavier — yikes!) and am about to leave for China. I hope I am ready for the lifestyle change. There are many comforts of life that I have grown used to and will have to do without. For example, I am fond of good red wine, French cheeses, and baguettes. I like good cigars and good air conditioning.
I’ve decided to bring my bicycle, so let’s hope I have no more accidents.
Because the Neuro class I’ll be teaching meets only once a week, I suggested to the students that we double the number of pages from Brain Facts due each class to 30. Lead balloon. Guess I’ll regroup when I get there.
Packing is difficult, as I want to bring everything with me. Because I can only bring a few books (due to weight), deciding which ones to take is proving to be one of the more difficult decisions.
I was at TJ the other day and felt nostalgic. Seventeen years is a long time to be in one place, especially for me. It is fortunate that I have a new adventure (trail to blaze?) to pursue following my retirement.
