application (well, resume and cover letter) away to teach History of the English Language (or, failing that, English Literature -- eep! -- or Writing Skills) this July on one of those programs where overprivileged high school kids do summer school in university settings.  my friend Queen P taught Modern British History with this outfit last summer, and recommended a few of us when they asked for targets suggestions for this year, and then the [checks his title] head of faculty coordination e-mailed (i assume he e-mailed all of us) to ask if i (we) would please apply.  a solid month teaching high school kids (HotEL and english lit would be 10th-12th graders, that is, rising juniors and seniors and recent HS graduates; writing skills would be rising 9th-10th graders, which is why it is my third rather than my second choice), but, not bad experience and decent resume line.  this summer Queen P is teaching actual college students at Santa Clara.  [shrug]

anyway.  e-mail's sent, and hard copy going in the mail tomorrow.

Ah, I miss Minneapolis.
