If I can attend, I plan to read the following, which I took from [livejournal.com profile] academics_anon:

missing class

today i missed class. it was fun--
almost like smoking a cigarette
with your best friend
outside of a building
and your professor walks out,
stops in front of you, and
invites you to a special discussion
in the english lounge
with critical theorist
stanley fish
and you think
wow
and take another puff of a cigarette
taking extra care not to blow in the
professor's face.
yes, i wish missing class
was like a cigarette break.

I think the part that gets me is Stanley Fish. I laugh.
