Until I went back to graduate school 12 years ago, I really had little exposure to post-modern thought. Let’s just say after getting my master’s I’m very familiar with it now. It just wasn’t taught in the 90s when I got my bachelors. But now? I got a rude awakening. Post-modern thought is not a […]

Charles and I will bid each other a formal goodbye. He will, without rising from the couch, tip his ball cap, and I will, in turn, awkwardly hold up my shoulder bag in nonsensical reciprocation. Charles and I are roommates only, hardly more than passing acquaintances. His friends call him Chuck. I do not.
I will then travel to school on foot, walking 2.4 miles along the frontage road. There is no sidewalk.
