![]() ![]() Beyond Spanish, I’ve forced myself to stay on top of boring but necessary matters like insurance plans and household renovations. I’ve also made some headway on my current research project, which concerns Spanish etymology, am gearing up to teach my first online class starting in a few weeks, and have resumed posting on this blog regularly after a substantial hiatus.

After months of anxiety and cabin fever spiked with a soupçon of political angst, everything I like to do with my normally nimble brain has become a bit harder.

I’m not talking about the notorious, long-lasting “brain fog” reported by many survivors of the coronavirus. The COVID-19 pandemic has really done a number on my brain. ![]()
