If you submitted to the Octopus August reading period, I'm sending your poems off to some other readers today. There are 240 of you. 140 of you will be read by someone else but me. So, if you're interested in a mag's digits, there you be.

Today I go to the student theater to watch North by Northwest for 1950's class. Then go to teacher orientation at Southeast Community College for a second comp class I'll be teaching, then back home to write a paper. I'm a busy man, baby. And I ain't even gots time for that.
