Friday Facts
It’s Friday, and I’m having a hard time concentrating, so I’ve decided to share a little-known fact about me:
In second grade, I won a blue ribbon for a poem I wrote titled, “The sky, the sky.”
I don’t know where the poem is now, but I remember it being a big deal because it was a regional competition. Or something like that. Honestly, I wrote the poem in about a minute, and with my left hand—my right hand was in a splint to protect the pinkie that I had recently sliced on a pudding can.
So there you have it: knowledge is power.

Poetry is stupid.
In my poetry writing class in college, I wrote a poem mocking the poets we’d read and the whole cult of poetry. My classmates didn’t get it. But they thought it was brilliant. So, there you go.
It was so good because you used your left hand and therefore the creative side of your brain.
Another Friday fact: Pudding is delicious.
I was going say the exact same thing as Kiel but whatever.
Katrina, you were going to say the same thing about the left handiness or the pudding? Or both, now that’s spooky.
Conlan, you’re such a rebel. Still have the poem?
Kiel and Katrina, I think you’re on to something: pudding inspires creativity. That gives me an idea…
