In the ancient sports class the professor reviewed Herakles' twelve labors, which happens to cover the mythology lecture I missed Monday when I played hooky. Griffin (the hairy boy) ought to be pleased. Yesterday one of the mythology TAs gave part of the lecture, but he spoke rapidly, providing little detail to the stories. Thereby he lost a few points- he's a handsome fellow and I had rather wanted to jump his bones (without touching him, somehow). Oh, well.
By the way, Louis, I altered the comment box- see? see? Tell me it's pretty.
Working through the logic homework last night led me to realize I do not understand how to apply subderivations. Conjunctions and biconditionals are easy to derive, but disjunctions and negations must be sub-derived from the original premise(s). I get lost amid all the lines and symbols. Reading the book helped very little. Hopefully with practice I'll learn this last section before the test next Friday.
Tonight I'll watch the Astros game with Kevin. I haven't watched baseball since the end of summer; it will be nice.
