Back with another one -- a homonym tale.
So, yesterday (Friday) the Northeast was impacted with a storm/blizzard warning. Although my office (in higher ed) has no say whatsoever in deciding whether/when to close, students call us, email us, blow up the Facebook page until we post the announcement.
When I came in yesterday, a student had emailed at 11:22 Thursday night to ask "is there collage today?" I created an auto reply so I wouldn't have to field so many inquiries.
Very glad I did, because with my aching back I was very tempted to write back, "Yes, and you clearly need to be here." (b*tchy, I know, but I was done!)
