thought of the day

it's amazing how some unexpected surprise can turn your whole day around. my day wasn't even going badly, but it's like a million bajillion times better now.

i was going to try and make some deep and insightful connection, but sometimes that just feels pretentious, you know?

but i will say this (about my day, not necessarily about how surprises are awesome): i am so grateful for awesome students. i love teaching anyway, but it's so much more fun when the students are eager to learn and fun to be around.

hopefully i didn't just jinx myself by saying that.

and, i'm kind of digging the random summer thunderstorm happening right now.

happy wednesday. have some flowers :)
