She nodded. "About a half hour after I got there. Renata dozed off almost immediately."

"Whatever works, I guess," I said.

As usual, Twink bounced right back after she'd shaken off the horrors that'd wiped her out on Wednesday-she showed up bright-eyed and bushy-tailed for my class on Thursday. It seemed peculiar to me that Twink was always superhyped on the day following one of her bad ones, but it was obvious that today's ebullience fit the pattern.

It was a little noisy in the classroom when I entered that afternoon. "All right, people," I said from the front of the room, "settle down. We've got something to take care of today. Next week's the last one of the fall quarter, so I guess we'd better start thinking about a final examination. I suppose we could all compose hymns of praise to conjunctions or prepositions, but that might be a little tedious, huh? I don't know about you, but it'd probably bore my socks off. Why don't we do something a little more exciting instead?"

I paused-for effect, of course. Then I snapped my fingers. "Why don't we write another paper?" I said as if the idea had just come at me from out of the blue. "You've been college students for twelve whole weeks now, and the reason we come to college is to learn stuff, right? OK, why don't you tell me about it? This'll be your last paper, and it'll be your final exam at the same time. You'll whip in here next Tuesday, dump your paper on the desk, and then split-unless you'd like some kind of farewell oration from old superteacher!"
