A lovely spring day! There's music blasting in the hallway, the sun is shining, classes are over for the week --- and that crazed prof is sitting in her web, smiling her crooked smile.
Today, in her lecture, she paid a great service to her many students. Let us say, metaphorically, hypothetically, that in her lecture, there was a certain path she could follow - a certain straightforward, stepping over the brambles and obstacles footpath. Now let us take a look at what the spinner decided to do.
She looked at the path ahead. She described to the individuals behind her, all clutching their notebooks and pens feverishly, the composition of the soil beneath their feet. As they all looked down, puzzled, wondering at the importance of that detail - and as they did so, she skittered up a rock on the side of the path and out of sight. The students, bewildered, followed. In much the same manner, the arachnide woman led the pour souls over hill and dale, through rivers and over quicksand, under creeping vines and around smelly bogs, all the way encouraging the mild little sheep that they would understand as soon as they got through.
And when they did "get through", the majority turned around and saw the starting point of their path, not two yards away from where they stood with no obstacles in their way, and they did not understand why they had not come that way in the first place.
....except the rooster with the peacock feathers tied to its wings. That rooster crowed with approval.

Haha Dr. Walter. What a gal. Full of joie de vivre. or something.
ReplyDeleteMainly I think she is just full of alarmingly massive amounts of caffeine.
And also perhaps cooties. Although I do not know why that would be. But I feel that she is the type to have cooties.
Ok it's time for me to go to bed. Because I am rambling on about cooties.
