LMNOP is my favorite part of the alphabet

blah blah blah tired and unmotivated.

Officially became a slacker by changing my grading option in a class from a letter grade to pass/no pass --> don't have to write a term paper and do a presentation.

Experimenting with leaving out subject pronouns, assuming first person would be understood by the reader, since this is a "diary".

Used to put periods and commas inside quotation marks--am a classically trained journalist, you know--but have stopped, because the punctuation really doesn't go with the thing in the quotation marks, does it?

Used to hate single quotation marks, but use them now because subject area requires it.

Still haven't checked to see if that one sentence about the penis was topicalizing or not. Know you are all waiting with baited breath for that. Is that how you spell 'baited breath'?

Have lost all intuitions about when to use " and when to use '.

me=pluf

Don't know why I'm tired. (Must use subject pronoun in complex sentences. Sorry.) Shouldn't be. Got much sleep.

Life was good yesterday afternoon, but not this afternoon.
