I feel like I have come back from the dead. Not only was I on a long blogging break, but I am recovering from a stomach virus or food poisoning. This latter condition meant that I spent my New Year’s Eve in bed, groaning at the smell of food. I still can’t even think of tacos without getting queasy.
My New Year has begun with a bang. I am teaching a Jan-term intensive at McCormick Theological Seminary. It is my first chance to teach a cultural interpretation course. It meets for the next two weeks from 5:00 to 9:00 p.m. The first night went pretty well, though I will need to adjust. Four hours is a long time, especially that late at night.
The class is about half African American and mostly women. Should be great fun!

I thought of you and of Baby-bib the other day. I've left parish life for the glories of parochial school chaplaincy. Last week I taught my fifth graders the sh'alu shalom yerushalayim song.
