This term has just raced by. Today I pass out take-home final exams. It's also an easy time, with nothing to read this week. Next, however, they turn in full scripts for final feedback from me before revising for a grade. So a ton of reading is ahead -- but this weekend is relatively quiet in this department, just a few advanced students to catch up with.
Oregon gets a test tonight against Arizona, the first opponent since their #2 rating, a team that creamed them last year. A game played in Arizona. I'll get home early enough to see most of the game.
No plans for Thanksgiving. In fact, we'll probably wander into a restaurant somewhere at the last minute. Long gone are the days when this was my favorite holiday, a gathering of half-a-dozen close couples or more, year after year, in LA or San Francisco or San Jose. Fond memories of those times, which ended in the late 70s. When this holiday "worked," it was a celebration of friendship more than of family since the great numbers of Deemers are all in New Jersey, and my father was the renegade who escaped small town life via the Navy and then retired on the west coast, not the east.
