Early morning :(

So I set the alarm an hour earlier than normal so I'd have time to blog before teaching, and then I got up six minutes earlier than normal.  So far, I'm not liking blogging in the mornings.

But today I won't blog in the afternoon---I'm driving to Ann Arbor right after classes to get my daughter for the weekend---so here goes:
_________________________________
8:49 a.m.  Chapter V is three pages long.

8:49 a.m.  At least the chapters are short  :)

8:51 a.m.  "Lucas Lodge," like "Carraway house" in Gatsby.

8:52 a.m.  Back to the play structure of chapters I and II?

8:56 a.m.  So here begins a platonic dialog on pride  :)

8:57 a.m.  And a great explication of the distinction between pride and vanity!

8:59 a.m.  Done.  The chapter ended in indirect speech, which made me reflect nostalgically (again) upon Konjunktiv eins  :)
