Katie, I have to say I'm very impressed by your integration of quotes, I think you did a better job than me, I had to tag things on to the begining and end to make my post make sense. Anyway, I don't think Algernon needs to be anxious about you, I've always said you test with "wonderful expression."
ReplyDeleteSpot on job making this post make sense! I especially enjoyed McMurphy's line "they b**** for weeks on end about how they can't stand this place," I think we all can identify with that. I also can relate to the humorous cartoon at the top, especially in these next two weeks. Nice work, I agree with Kaleigh!
