Well, on days when I go to class, I typically eat a bagel in the car on the drive down. Today, though, I was distracted by my paper presenting thoughts and wasn't hungry. I left the bagel in the car during the 3-hour class, knowing it would be nice and warm upon my return. What I found, to my great amusement, was that not only was it warmed, but it was slightly toasted, as if I'd put the toaster on level 1. It was delicious, and I cannot believe the combo of the sun and my car actually toasted a bagel over a 3-hour time frame.
Oh, the little things.

That's great! Who would have thought.
Did you enjoy the class up until the end?
Steph, I did totally enjoy this class, even the last day. Listening to the 5 other grad students present their papers, I thought--Jane Austen provides so much diverse fodder for academic thought. She's brilliant and I have loved this chance to get to know her work better. I think in August, when I have 3 weeks off of school, I'm going to try to read Mansfield Park. It's still unknown territory to me, and now I think I'm ready to explore it. Fun!
