i had dinner this evening with mr. fleegan and his sister’s family including one of their cousins who happens to be in high school. turns out that she’s in liz’z dad’z english class.
small damn town, huh?
anyway, mr. fin, she says your class is “soooooo hard.” also, she hated the Iliad, but really, who hasn’t hated the Iliad? i love greek myth and all, but damn, Homer isn’t exactly compelling, or brief.
so then she asks if i can tutor her in english.
sure, i say. anytime, i say.

it was only after i got home did i realize that i told someone i’d tutor them in english. me?!
oh well, how hard could high school english be? i passed it once before. it’ll be like reruns.
i done tol’ her i could learn her to speak and write language good.

i’m listening to the Allman Bros. right now. is there anything more perfect than “In Memory of Elizabeth Reed”? hush liz, i wasn’t asking you. or laura either. in fact, nevermind that last question.

okay, well, “Little Martha” is probably my fave. but Liz Reed is right up there.
