Yesterday was the second day of the material culture course I'm teaching during the first summer session.  The day went well, I thought.  We talked about corsets, hats with dead birds on them, and African-American women's church hats, with tangents into stiletto heels and push-up bras.  Lots of good discussion, and some laughter, as is appropriate when talking about push-up bras and hats with dead birds on them.
After I dismissed the class, a student who had missed the first meeting came up to tell me he was glad he was taking the class because it was "cool."  
"I'm glad you're enjoying it already," I replied.
"Yeah, I love this stuff," he said.  "I love knowing random bits of stuff.  It's like, you know, bathroom reading.  I love those bathroom readers."
*sigh*
