Cal.E.'s Korner

C.: Hey, d.c., how is your day going?

d.: Not too well, Cal.E. My computer is acting up again, but that's not my only problem. I suppose I'll need an even bigger hammer.

C.: It’s the first day of your vacation, so what’s going wrong?

d.: It seems like everything, Cal.E.. You might say that I’m having a very bad, horrible, not fine day.

C.:???

d.: Oh, you aren’t from Earth, so you haven’t read that book, I suppose. Elementary school kids read this book when I was in early elementary school

C.: In the last century, right? Like one hundred years ago?

d.: No, just....anyway, the book is about a little girl who is having a bad day, and she proceeds to tell the readers all about it. I feel like that little girl today.

C.: Why?

d.: Well, the little girl didn’t have anything too horrible go wrong with her day, but all the little things that happened made her believe that she was having a very bad, horrible, not fine day.

C.: Well, could the lesson that the students were supposed to learn have been about correct use of comas?

d.: Maybe, it’s been a while since I read the book. I just remember the title and the gist of the book.

C.: So, you didn’t read it today, then, did you?

d.: No, I didn't read it today, or yesterday, for that matter.

C.: Well, do you have a roof over your head?

d.: Yes.

C.: Enough food to eat and clothes to wear?

d.:Yes.

C.: And do you have millions of dollars in your bank account in case something does go horribly wrong?

d.: Well,,,.no. Thanks Cal.E., you've made me feel…worse.

C.: Then I suppose I’ve done my job for today, so that will wrap up today’s blog. Please join us tomorrow for another episode of Cal.E.’s Korner.
