Bright day, dim day, a little of each.
   
One student claims not to know the class meets on Thursday, asks me to give her a tutorial on work missed.
   
One student asks for access to my notes. I say, “You may have noticed that I don’t use notes.”
She says, “I have a special disability where I lose track of what’s happening in class. It would really help if I could see everything written down.”   
I do not say, “Back in my day that was called ‘not paying attention.’” Here it is a disability. You can go to the disability office and work out ways to accommodate this. I’ll bet the ways do not include paying attention.

Weir rehearsal at my office last night. I was not behind, and feared that I might be.
