The word came down a few minutes ago: my American Lit. course got axed, and in its place, I now have a Comp II. So that's one Comp I and one Comp II--eek. But they're back to back, I've taught them both 500 zillion times, and I've had overall good luck with summer students. As well, Comp I will be small; 9 students now. (23 so far in Comp II, so an average of 15-16; in terms of grading, not bad.) I think our dean and department chair had mercy on me by letting that one make, but I'll take it.
So it's to school tomorrow to cobble together a C II syllabus and print the C I syllabus, plus gather some prelim. materials, and gather my rosebuds while I may.
My baseball-writing stuff is about done and ready to send. I think I'm on the right track tonally and informationally, but we'll see. I will say that writing capsule reviews of all these tasty Atl. restaurants makes me want something other than stew for dinner. :)
Now, away from this computer for the rest of the night.
