The Podcast
Even though spring break's been a complete capital D for DRAG so far, I did read a great book, Shanghai Girls by Lisa See, and today I even felt well enough to make a podcast about the book. I didn't feel like going into plot details but I do raise some interesting somewhat related points during the podcast and if you click right here you can listen to it if you want to.

Did you know I've also been to a bunch of Chinese cities? I have NOT been to Shang Hai, but I have been to Beijing and to Kunming and I took a train through a bunch of others. I also lived in Xian for 6 months with my mom in 1988. One of my students this year, Clara, is Korean but went to an international school in Beijing for several years. After the earthquake, though, all of the Cargill families were moved out of Beijing, so she moved to Edina. Her dad works in Korea, but her parents thought she'd do better in an American school, so here she is. I really like her, and I'm glad she asked me to write one of her college recs.
KC, I vaguely remember you talking about this. Do yu have any pix. It would be cool to do some retro blogging about your time in this cool country.
I read this book, and liked it very much.
2. Once again - you've posted a great photo. You MUST get back to JPG.
3. If you're still ailing, I don't want your germs, but I need to know whether or not you will be gracing me with your presence tomorrow (Wednesday).

Can you give me an approximate time?

Can you come over right after lunch? Like 1 o'clock. It will be wine time then.

You can help me select for the SoFA show. I have to eliminate one.
