Midge Journal

September: 'Glam'


Monday: Classes begin again. The new students look so young and cute;
like twelve year olds. I feel like I'm teaching junior high school instead of college. One student,
a pimply faced kid, Walter even left an apple on my desk. After a lecture on the earliest known
farming village discovered in Northern Syria.
Tuesday: Spent the morning preparing lectures for Wednesday. Two o'clock went out for tacos with Barbie at the mall. We had our nails done. She is besieged
with phone calls from Herkamer Peavey!! Hee, hee.
Wednesday: Department meeting at 4pm and I chipped a nail! Such an eyesore against my blue suit. Didn't have time to run out and have it touched up--make note to self to purchase same color nail polish as manicurist uses to keep in desk drawer.

Thursday: Archaeology Club meeting at noon. What a great group of students! Every one of them has seen "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doon" too many times. I have to keep reminding them that archaeology is not that glamourous!!!

Friday: Morning class and then I'm free for the week-end. Taking a train to NYC for a photo shoot Saturday and dinner with that cute surgeon Stephan. Sunday morning I'll visit the Cloisters than catch a train back home. Plenty of 'prep time' for next week on the train.

End.

Midge is so smart, so educated and always looks, well, just so together.

Cloisters, huh? What great taste!
