Well, it's not like I said it was phoned in, so maybe she just didn't notice 😛
We're going to be briefly discussing our potential topics in class tonight, so if anyone is worse than just "slightly uncomfortable" about rats, I'll probably go with Esperanto. If nobody has a horrible phobia of rats to the point where even discussing them is a no-go, then I'd love the excuse to potentially help them appreciate those critters a bit more 😉
If the commute were shorter, or if there were less of a wait time between Philosophy and Speech, or if my car's air conditioning were working, I still might have gone today. (They're getting into Turing tests and whether GenAI counts as "intelligent" or not, and I have very strong opinions about that. Tomorrow is more about test review, and then Monday is Early Bird Exam Day, and Tuesday is Proper Exam Day.) But driving thirty minutes in a car that's either not air conditioned, or is cooled while making constant, high-volume whirring noises, and then either camping out at school for six hours (and figuring out lunch and dinner while there, especially with the school cafe closing at two o'clock) or driving home and back in the interim... Skipping seemed like the better option for me, especially since it won't affect my grade.
