After my wife Andrea tested positive for covid on 6 September and I had early flu symptoms, I knew I'd test positive, too. And I did on Friday, 9 September. Andrea was better in about ten days; for me, it took around twenty: I finally started to feel better on Wednesday and Thursday this week. I had to cancel the first two weeks of my classes for this semester, but now I'm feeling much better and am ready to teach on Tuesday. This semester, I'm especially looking forward to my seminar on Elizabeth Bishop's poetry; in the first session, we'll discuss her poem "Late Air". Yesterday, I prepared by memorizing it.
