7-29-2008: I'll try to post more regularly, maybe daily, so check back once in while. The sketches and experiments have been piling up so I thought I'd give the pile a reason for being. Are the heading anywhere?
A fellow teacher, Jim, brought extra pepers to school. I was excited about them so he gave me a bunch. They were hot. A co-teacher tossed one back, mocking the students who had done the same, downed a carton of milk and promptly puked up the whole mess. Not wanting to be left out, I took a healthy bite of one and spent the next several minutes pretending it wasn't all that hot. I had forgotten these things are much hotter before they're cooked. I brought the rest home and played at sketching one. A couple of days later, a friend, Emily, took a few home and made a chili. I hear it was good but I didn't try it, a little jaded from my big bite.
