I don't know if I'll write at this rate of two blogs a night.  I'm not even trying, it's just that so much thought spews out of my brain that I need to actually get it out so I can sleep decently at night.

I wouldn't say that this happened for the first time in my life, but for the first time in a while, someone told me that they missed me.  It actually made my day, and like Mark Twain, I could live off these words (or in his case, compliments) for a month.

My other thought is that taking this English Class would add some vocabulary to my arsenal of words.  I feel like a test subject in Flowers for Algernon, where Charlie, the main character, becomes a test subject for intelligence pills that do actually work.

Although they did work, it worked for a short amount of time.  Side note, Charlie "speled lyk dis" - something not is not really ebonics however resembling the said format.

While I feel that this english class will boost my vocabulary, It'll be lost again sometime until I either memorize it or use it over and over again. 

That's what school is for, right?
