I had the strangest sensation today.

In the middle of class, allofasudden I (felt like I) was in Barnes & Noble. I could see the sections of the store, remember every little thing about it. I went into the Asheville store once over vacation, and it felt like time had looped itself back to that day with Minta. But it obviously hadn’t, so I laughed at myself. I shouldn’t have been laughing, so my laughing made me laugh a bit more.

This was bad, because I was in the middle of a “repeat after me” section of the textbook about Rachel Carson and DDT and the sad little momma birds with the too-soft eggs. It is the only chapter in the textbook that I actually care for, because it is about something real and it challenges the kids.

Everybody looked up at me, the teacher as well. I cleared my throat and continued.

So that was the funny thing today.

I also made an 8mm tiny with all the folds: , a new PR.
