Tucson Meet Yourself

Tucson Meet Yourself, one of our favorite Old Pueblo events, ran over the weekend. Rebecca and I went alone Friday night when I ate Columbian, Korean, Tohono O’odham, and Thai. We ran into two of my excellent students from last year, Sam and Miriam, both now seniors set to graduate next May. And we met two of my students from Pueblo, Deserie (my student all four of her years as a Warrior), who’s hoping to become a lawyer instead of a pediatrician, as she’d dreamed of long ago, and Melissa, who wasn’t my student proper but whom I knew and who joined us as Deserie’s friend in Europe in 2005. They’re both seniors in college, set to graduate too.

First Corndog

Rebecca’s tired of begin cooped-up after several weeks in semi-quaratine (because of a possible exposure to mumps when we were in Ethiopia), and I have Rodeo off, so we spent the day running around town. Debabu got to enjoy his first corndog today, and he got to wear that cool-ass hat.
