Grading

I spent most of the day grading essay exams, about 40 of them. Boy, were they ever mediocre. I am not so good at grading, maybe. I mean, I know that no one likes it, but I don't know. I can only handle so much at once. I need like a grading monkey to do it for me. It's really too bad that my dogs cannot assist with grading. I'm sure they'd be good at it, if only they had opposable thumbs with which to hold a writing implement.

Boy, am I ever glad that's over.
