Ups And Downs

Definitely up: Finishing the mighty second and final volume of The Complete Poems of A. R. Ammons. Instantly wanted to go back and read some more, but it really is time to take a break from Archie's beguiling voice. Now thinking of what Collected I might have left to get to grips with next.

Definitely, indisputably doooowwn: The result from yesterday's final at Wembley. Puzzled how it turned out like it did after I'd worn my favourite Man U jerseys all week and my lucky socks on the Saturday itself.

Possibly down: Being incredibly busy today getting bits of marking out of the way and scrambling to get ready to set off for our evening flight to Rome.

Mind you, that last bit is quite an Up and compensates for all the rushing, no?
