I've heard the saying that life is a dance, but sometimes I look around, and feel like I am stuck playing a game at a sleepover party. Remember the game, "Would You Rather"? It started out as which boy would you rather have to be partners with, or which of two cute teachers would you rather marry? That was back when boys your own age still had cooties, but of course grown up men had gotten rid of their cooties. But I digress.
I'd like to say a heartfelt thank you those who contacted me in response to my last article on grief. It's a relief to know that people I've never met are willing to reach out and share with me.

It was an event that affected the whole Richmond community and one that shouldn't have happened. I reach out with sympathy to those hurt by it.
I had the strangest experience the other day. While I was stretching in the gazebo, a lonely duck paddled through the inactive lake. I will never know that duck's name. As the lake carried its traditional waste to its banks, inevitably, I began to think.
The University of Richmond, pending completion of the Westhampton College Deanery addition, may have the highest amount of "study space" per capita in the country.
More colleges are implementing campus-wide smoking restrictions across the country, with many becoming smoke-free entirely.
This Homecoming Weekend promises to be as strange as it will be memorable, because those who were my peers just a few months ago will be returning to campus as members of that distant and ever-growing faction that is "alumni."
