Good morning.

I hope you all received my email this weekend. If you have any concerns about the discontinuation of Friday sessions, please let me know and I will attempt to address them.

Classics: We will continue our study of the basics of Greek. Please pair up and practice the pronounciations. Audiotapes demonstrating the proper sounds are in the cupboard at the back of the room; each pair of students should take a tape and headphones and go to a listening booth to work.

Languages of Asia: There is a quiz on Cantonese today, with the same format as the quiz on Hebrew last week. After you complete the vocabulary and translation passage, please approach me at my desk for a brief conversation in Cantonese.

[OOC: I got a comment that the Dream font makes it very hard to read the links, and -- as the FH community is white-on-black anyhow -- I'm removing it from his class postings. I'll still use it in his conversations, emails, etc. I offer my apologies to Neil Gaiman and anyone else offended.]

It is not a problem.

We watched a film in class. It should still be in the VCR at the back of the room.

"Thanks," says Janet. "I'll make up the film today before I hit the library." She pauses, then remembers what else she needs to talk to him about. "You have Miss Parker, don't you, for a class or two?" She pulls out a note from her backpack. "She's in the clinic for the next four days. I have a note from Dr. Wilson."

Dream can't actually get any paler, but he definitely looks a little saddened by the news as he takes and examines the note.

I see. Thank you, Miss Frasier. If you visit Miss Parker in the clinic, tell her I will see her and discuss makeup work next week.

"You're welcome." Janet takes a deep breath and lets it out slowly. "I'll pass on the message."

She goes to get the videotape and watches it in the darkened room, but once again, she can't keep her eyes open.

Dream notices that Janet has fallen asleep, but decides against disturbing her.

There will be time enough to look in on her later.

Michael can't help but overhear. "Janet, did you say Parker's in the clinic? What happened? She was fine when I left her yesterday?"

Janet turns and looks. Oh, right, this is Michael. "That damned Ethics assignment," she says. "Between the lousy diet and the additional stress from that stupid master/slave assignment, her ulcer ruptured." Janet's hands curled into fists. "Dr. Wilson cauterized it. She'll be fine, but she'll be in the clinic for the next four days on possibly the blandest diet in the world."

Michael swore under his breath and added something very uncomplimentary in French about the master/slave experiment, then pulled himself together. "I apologize. Thank you, Janet. I'll go over and see her right away. Do you think there is anything she needs - from her room , perhaps - that I could bring her?"
