Today's been excellent. One of my stockings kept sliding down on campus this morning, so I
had to safety pin its garter to my slip, a procedure I carried out very
awkwardly on a park bench. I forked over thirty dollars in late fees at
the library, which is more than I'm willing to spend on groceries these
days. I have an essay to write and exams are alarmingly near. But despite all of this, I'm wildly happy. Emma got my letter and the spring bursts up in bonfires green.

Did you get my letter, E.?

Today! It had me gasping on the porch. Can't wait to reply.

Well, I gasped profusely while I wrote it, so only fair.
