Working endlessly on a really
difficult literature assignment. The word came from Ms.
Barrett, an intimidating and
yet loving literature teacher.
Non-Barretter: "Hey wanna go out for movies tonight?"
Barretter: "
Nah, about 3 more hours of barretting to
go, on the writings of Emerson."
Non-Barretter: "I read books to entertain myself."
Barretter: "I read books to find the
Truth."
