my writing class is, itself, fiction

September 30, 2004

Today I booked it downtown to get to the first session of my writing class on time. It was supposed to be 11-2, and when I found the address, it turned out to be an elementary school. No problem there; Gotham Writers Workshop often rents space from schools and other facilities. However, 11am on Thursday is the middle of the schoolday; there was no writing class.

I left, puzzled. On my way back to the train, I saw a Gotham box on the street: brilliant! I picked up a catalog and discovered:

- the class is Tuesday, not Thursday

- it’s at another location entirely

- it doesn’t start until next week

I have no idea how I could have made so many errors simultaneously. I’m looking for my confirmation letter so I can try to disclaim responsibility for at least one of those errors.

    Well at least you can claim consistency. You are consistently incorrect. You appear to have to ability to be wrong without fail. Not every one can do that.
