We read that poem in English class today. ("anyone lived in a pretty how town", that is) I liked it. It made me want to go read more poems by e. e. cummings.

I read a cool book on the development of the English language over break. It had many cool facts and questions such as: Why does the Royal Mail deliver the post but the Postal Service deliver the mail?
