Summer school is in session, which will certainly reduce the frequency of my posts, since any energy I have for writing would be better served composing papers for class.  I am taking “Age of Johnson”, the Johnson in question being Samuel Johnson; a class on Florida history; and another class on Romanticism, hoping I might be able to use what bits of information are still fresh in my mind from the spring semester.

The most agonizing part about summer school is that, with class occurring every day, any assignments are due the following day, whereas in fall or spring you have at least 48 hours before the subsequent session.

Another agonizing thing is paying $55 for a book which has almost identical contents to one I already own, but is just different enough to necessitate my purchasing it.
