I didn't forget your special guest blog. I just forgot how busy first week of term is. Later today, I promise. And tomorrow I'll get those letters in the mail. Also promise.
My Wednesday class is even more wonderful than ever. I walked in feeling grumpy and walked out feeling on top of the world. We worked on finding ideas from reference books, on using reference books and on related matters.
My work for the next few minutes is sorting my pile of 3000 notes. I have until Saturday night to get them done, if I don't want to fall behind on other things. I thought I'd finished with these notes, but fortunately I mislaid them and so didn't throw them out. My big sort came at precisely the right time, and they've reappeared exactly when I really need them.
My pile of books to lose is now big. I still don't have a single empty shelf, but I will have lost four boxes of books. A couple of shelves aren't about to topple over, which is as good as it gets around here.
