a little sorrow, a little joy

i was so sad to miss conceptual physics!  to be fair, i have sat in on that particular class before and obviously i've had peter in class (three semesters, actually, and he's my major advisor, and he was my boss one year.  sheesh!).  i've got to wonder, though - alex, why are you so excited that he got flustered?  and what happened?  in other news, i was thrilled by the poetry we did in class.  y'all know (becuse anne asked) that i love poetry, and that working through it can be a really enjoyable activity for me, especially when we get so many interesting and different minds working together.  poetry, like physics, like good literature, like history, like art, like everything, is for me just another way to tell stories about the universe, and i like that, because i'm a storyteller.
