Just finished writing a formal letter for Sophia. Now I feel sleepy! I still have to wake up early tomorrow for a meeting in church. Then I have to bum around until 3 pm for the CWC meeting at King Albert Park. Think I'll start learning my bridge conventions tomorrow, so that I'll be able to play contract games with Shen Ting after I get the PW report sorted out by Thursday. Today, I finally finished the Frost anthology through sheer willpower. Frost does have the occasional beautiful line in his writing. Otherwise, it's just plain, plain to the extent of becoming unremarkable. I don't care what Louis Untermeyer thinks about Frost, I think he's downright boring at least half the time. Oh, this is thoroughly amusing! I'm now having a conversation with Yi-Xun, and his anguished comments about how his essay comparing the two poems is screwed are so funny! They consist mostly of swearing really, it's the reason he thinks he's screwed that lends humour to the whole situation. Ask me in private if you really want to know why...
