bearshortyI did some grading this morning – can’t escape it, even on Spring Break. Still the sun is shining, it is very warm and it is nice not to have to lecture today. I walked to the Post Office in the afternoon to mail the invitation and it was just lovely. Love the weather.
I was reading an article in National Geographic about nomadic tribes in Papua New Guinea and the story recounted their origin myths. Sickness, and greed and other negative emotions came to the world only after one man snuck away to the women’s cave and had sex with a woman for the first time. Why do so many origin myths all over the world involve sex leading to bad things? The article was very interesting overall.
