I have graded 82 out of 94 papers thus far.
After paper #82, it dawned on me that I was grading all the papers on a 20-point scale, though the syllabus and my gradebook both show that the final paper was supposed to be graded on a 30-point scale.

I've ::headkeyboard::ed so much that the "R" key is now permanently lodged in my forehead.

For those of you not following my grading progress on Facebook: 20 papers graded, 82 remaining.

Granted, final papers for Intro to Fiction (two classes in which they enrolled *everyone* who needs a last-minute 200-level humanities class to graduate) are not officially due until 2PM tomorrow, so we'll see if I actually receive all 102 papers.

Also accomplished today:
- booked wedding photographer 545 days in advance (NYC wedding planning is wacky)

Instances of copy-and-paste plagiarism spotted today:
- zero! (It's a miracle: they finally understand that I HAVE GOOGLE TOO.)
