Big Day for Missy Linda

Hey there humans and others,

Well, it's a big day (kind of) for Missy Linda today. It's not that big of a deal, but she has so little to hold on to that we are going to go along with her, aren't we? She gets to read her article at the launch party for the New Plains Review. Stay with me, folks.

She has had kind of a crummy couple of weeks lately so let's just let her have her tiny little moment. You know it must be bad if I am willing to cheer for her, right?

She made the worst grade she has ever made on a research paper last week. She could not even believe it at first. That's the class she had a test in yesterday. She is just glad that there is only one more test (the final), and the semester is nearly over. She just can't please this prof. She expects a fairly bad grade on this test because she just can't understand what this guy wants. She loves all her other classes, no matter how tough they are. She can hardly wait to say, "Goodby Chaucer, Milton and the Pearl Poet. I hope I don't run into you again."

Maybe she will feel less cranky after her little reading today. She is also planning a little dig at the editor who cut and re-wrote just a little too much of her article, she thinks.
