Classics 802: All Pindar - ALL THE TIME. And Coins.

In other, not horrific, news: I get to design my own upper-level lecture class next term!

It can be about anything. Well, anything within reason. Anything that's classical. Anything that's classical and can be accessed without a knowledge of Greek or Latin.

So there are some limitations. But not many.

I'm excited!

On the other hand, this is guaranteed to require a lot of time. Which is fine - except it means juggling the dissertation with a bit more care than is currently necessary, since on my current schedule I am regularly done teaching and back at my desk writing by 9.45 in the morning, where I work - uninterrupted - until the Wife gets home at 5.15.

It's been a good semester.  I'm almost finished with my third chapter, too! Then I'll have a solid week and a half to devote to the goddamned dozen jobs that all have applications due at the end of October.

Deep breaths.  Deep breaths.

Whoo-hoo! Rock those job apps! Then you can get back to the exciting part: how much freaky god-man-beast sex can you cram into one course?

Also, don't neglect the dirty epigrams!
