While they were writing, I read Harry Potter. I knocked off a couple of hundred pages during the test. Then, when I got home, Anne wasn't here--she is still not here-- so after my nurse went away I went to bed and read more and had a nap. I have been feeling really rotten today, so I mostly read all day and I am on Chapter 25.
I am sad about not having a nice visit with Anne. I was counting on this afternoon because tomorrow who knows how long I will have to work. I think the author is losing her touch. The book starts out v-e-r-y-s-l-o-w-l-y and just is not as interesting and full of fun detail as some of the former ones. I think I liked the first one best. Of course, I will finish it, and I hope it gets more exciting from here on out.

Today my students took their writing proficiency. A cursory glance shows they did better than I expected. We shall see what the committee thinks.
