I was at the checkout counter buying 3 packages of index cards to make flashcards for my Spanish vocabulary words that I am trying to learn for my summer class. As the cashier completed my transaction she said “Have fun”. I almost stopped to tell her what they where for, and how it probably wasn’t going to be fun. But instead I just smiled and said “Thanks”.  For some reason, this class isn’t my idea of fun. And that’s just too bad, because it’s going to be what I spend a lot of time doing this summer.
