Life in 10 seconds

Hit 50,000 miles on my car - exactly as I got home. What are the odds? (...anaphora, parataxis, litotes...) Test day tomorrow, and I'm far from ready but trying not to think about it that way. (...Jonson, Sidney, Donne...) Reading Beloved by Toni Morrison and listening to the audio tape of Atlas Shrugged by Ayn Rand (a re-read). (...Tristam Shandy, Anna Karenina, Faerie Queene...) Busy week with work and everything else. (...vilanelle, sonnet, ottava rima...) Next week, the application process starts for real. (...negative capability, dissociation of sensibility, objective correlative...) Not looking forward to all the fees, and thinking that schools really should refund your money if they reject you. (...Frye, Bloom, Arnold...) The way it is now, it just adds insult to injury.

Whew!

Imagining what freedom will feel like...
