Iambic Pentameter: Results

I considered writing this in iambic pentameter...but I figured that one 490 word post in iambic pentameter is quite enough for one week. Besides, this way I can actually say "iambic pentameter," which is really fun. So how did it go? The simple answer: it was a partial success. Let's do a good news/bad news sort of thing, with the bad news first so we can look forward to the good news:

Bad News
-Only one person noticed (actually "acknowledged" is probably a better word) my endeavor.
-I had told that person my plan on Monday.
-I forgot the pickup a lot.
-Occasionally, my "one word responses" were a few words.
-I forgot to keep it up a few times throughout the day, especially at lunch.
-I fell into the trap of using foreign languages as excuses. For example, in German class I spoke German without dealing with iambic pentameter, figuring that that would be an unreasonable expectation. I still believe this to be acceptable, but the problem was that once I realized I could get away with this I used more German than I might otherwise have bothered with to avoid the challenge.
-I stopped at about 2:10 when Mr. Giromini was concluding his discussion with the class regarding Olymipi--- err, I mean we were totally talking about design labs that whole time - figuring that I would probably panic and say something stupid just to make it fit the meter.

Good News
-I remembered to use it most of the day.
-I was able to get across most of what I wanted to say.
-Mrs. Fuelling noticed.
-It was the day we started reading Much Ado About Nothing. (I planned this:)
-IT WAS FUN!

I know it looks like there's a ton more bad news than good news, but it's OK. The point was for it to be fun, so the last one counts for at least π. And since I already acknowledged the pickup thing, I'm only counting that as e^iπ + 1. Gepwnd. ;)
