I am not an idiot.
On the contrary, I think I’m pretty darned clever, especially when compared with the average person on the street.
I know who the president is.
I know the difference between “your” and “you’re”.
I can even sing the Hogwarts School Song.

So why am I locked up with anxiety over writing a discussion post response that is mind-numbingly simple? It might have something to do with the fact that they’ve piled more details into the rubric on how to write than what they expect to be written. Or maybe I am just worrying about that part too much.

All I know is that I’m looking out the window thinking I would rather go pull weeds than do this assignment – and that says something about how much I want to do this. Crap.
