Stupid money.

Apparently the deadline for the May Term payment is the beginning of next semester.

Oh well; it was a nice dream while it lasted.

A preview, for phosphodae...

...of what I'm going to write on the board tomorrow morning.

"An Attempt at Unrhymed Verse"

People tell you all the time,
Poems do not have to rhyme.
It's often better if they don't
And I'm determined this one won't.

Oh dear.

Never mind, I'll start again.
Busy, busy with my pen...cil.
I can do it if I try--
Easy, peasy, pudding and gherkins.

Writing verse is so much fun,
Cheering as the summer weather,
Makes you feel alert and bright,
'Specially when you get it more or
less the way you want it.

-- Wendy Cope
