the person and the persona

Flipped open my TIME magazine today to a quick snapshot about Michelle Obama (in all of her fabulousness).  Her ability to always look amazing while also sounding impressively intelligent was deemed a mastery of "the person and the persona: the private self and the projected public image".  It seems that she would be the ultimate teacher; our performance is a daily six-act play that never seems to meet the high standards of our critics.  If only we could all look so damn good while spitting our mad pedagogic game.

On the bright side (terrible pun intended), when I left the building at 5:55p.m. today, it was still light out.  Celebrate the small victories.
