Morning again

Less than an hour to teaching.  Let's get this chapter done fast:
_____________________________
8:39 a.m.  Chapter XI.  Five pages, and I counted carefully  :)

8:40 a.m.  The first *half hour* was spent in piling up the fire!  :)

8:44 p.m.  That thing about books continues  :)

8:46 a.m.  I had no idea that simply walking up and down a room could mean all of that  :)

8:48 a.m.  It's amazing---if I may say so again---how many fortune cookie sentences are used in this book, and yet the book doesn't appear ridiculous, just because the fortune cookie sentences are spoken by the characters, as opposed to related to the reader by the third-person narrator.

8:53 a.m.  Done.  But there will be more after classes  :(
