An accountable tortoise

'Twas the week before Thanksgiving, and

  • Lily refused to go to nursery and went to sunbeams instead,
  • Elsie slept on Katie's top bunk when Katie went to sleep downstairs with her cousins,
  • Timmy reported sadly that the game "chase" has been banned from recess,
  • Abby counted the days this week and was sad to note that she would only see her best friend Brooklyn on 3 days rather than on the usual 6 days,
  • Kate got invited several friends to design games for a winter magazine,
  • Gina had to work to get any word from an elusive loan officer, and
  • I broke down and started reading something unrelated to my dissertation.
