Why don’t we just refer to this as ‘future envy.’

I don’t have a ton to report this week since I don’t have a class. The notes are driving me crazy. I finished revising my curriculum, I brought on an IT guy to assist with the more technical elements of the site, and class signups will be on May the 31st and June the 1st.
