first day of the rest of my life. i’m “semi-retired” as of today. taught my last USC class of the semester… yesterday… and will be teaching no more fall semesters. just 3 more springs. half time at half pay. “phased retirement”, amigos! time to collect social security, take the leap, and see how to create that “third act” i’ve been talking about for so long…. so… played tennis today. with earl, the pearl. as every tuesday and friday. in LA’s south central hood. slauson and van ness. my favorite thing to do in the world. hit the yellow fuzzy tennis…
