	Since I always talk about myself, you all know who I am and what
I'm up to.  But I'll encapsulate here.
	I just spent the last half hour starting to pack up my office
aat the University of South Florida.  Moving from Tampa to Tempe, as in
Arizona, as in hot.  Just like here.  Not my ideal weather situation, but
tthen, the New England market was tough this year, as was the North
Carolina market.  I guess some things ARE predictable, after all.  Except
tthat I'd get an offer from Arizona State University and move to the
desert.  The Sun Devils are supposed to lead the PAC 10 this year.  Now
we're talking.  A-and the Suns are reorganizing;  no more CHARLES
BARKLEY!! Thank (fill in blank)!  How funny that they booted him just in
time.  I mean I've truly hated him for years now.  Ange is gone.  K.J. is
 gone.  Just starting over.  So I'll be teaching something called
something like "Writing and Public Issues," which sounds o.k., pretty much
like what I have done for years.  I am excited about this new job.  Also
about my upcoming wedding.  Spent about an hour today fixing the badly
done alterations on the sleeves of my dress (paid $95.00 for the work).
SLooks very nice now.  If you want something done right . . .
