I have some friends that were building tetrasaurs. These are kites that are shaped like pyramids. When you stare at them for a long time in the sun they make an imprint and you can see them when you close your eyes. I got an email back from the girl I used to date that said she had seen one of those guys somewhere in the South near New Orleans. It was sort of ironic since I heard the story from two people.
About two weeks before that I went on a field trip with my class. It was another one of those trips where we used the local area as a way to explore our field methods. I had to send an email to another professor that I couldn’t make it to a meeting for our trip to China. The meeting was to get us oriented towards all of the choices we needed to make before we left. I have since realized that the teacher also needed to see us together to get a feel for how the trip would be for us. That was day one of this month. I told my professor that I was getting a passport soon.
This is series is a retrospective of my life taken from emails that I sent or received on the First of the Month.
