I'm grateful for...

Southwest Airlines, who free-of-charge (actually, put me $20 in the green!), gave me an extra 2 days of Thanksgiving holiday when I impulsively decided a few hours before my Sunday evening flight that I could not leave California just yet...


And among many other things, Courtney aka Sandra (as in Day O'Connor), for turning in a paper for me today.

I even thought up a short ballad parody about her yesterday, to the tune of that African song WASPy folk (me included, of course) pass off as elementary cultural experience:

Day O' [as in Sandra Day O'Connor]
Me say Dayyy O'
Deadline come and me wan' stay home.

Haha, I am so honored that your ode to me made your blog. You better be in class next week, it is the last class or prudery!
