Pursuing Calefaction

Wow, this last year has been a blaze of…something. Last year this time I was hip-deep in the spring semester, and panicking every other day. Now I’m hip-deep in the spring semester, and panicking every day. Progress, of a sort.

The lesson from Xenophon’s tale, of course–be it true or fabricated–is that even when surrounded by a hundred thousand barbarians howling for your blood, your leaders assassinated, your home a thousand  miles away, there remains hope as long as there remains a will.

March forth bravely!
