This Would Be Me Not Working
You know how I said yesterday I thought it would be another 12 hour day? I was wrong. I left the house at 9am and finished grading papers at 11pm. In between, I had walks to and from campus, grading, teaching, more grading, dinner with students (which was tasty!) a skosh more grading and a rehearsal. Followed by grading. Yesterday turned out to be a 14 hour day.
So today, I got to my office 15 minutes earlier than usual, entered grades, taught, and then went back to my office to spend some time grading, answering emails and talking with students who actually came to my office. And then I chatted with my teaching partner about today's classes and tomorrow's class and answered some more emails. Also a phone call. I finally left just after four. So I'd been on campus for almost 8 hours, most of it working. And I brought home work to do as well. Because I need to grade some more papers & some major projects. They are sitting in my bag. I think I can hear them calling me.
Oh. I also need to re-read the thing I assigned for tomorrow's class and write up a lesson plan AND finish the book assigned for a different class AND work a bit (just a bit, there are rumors of major rewrites) on the play we started rehearsals for last night. Also? I'm supposed to sign up to audition on Monday. Because I have so much time to prepare.
Why can't I find the motivation for any of this?
Hmmmm...
I wonder...
**Update** I did nothing. Well, I picked song to take to rehearsal on Monday. And I spent some time with Dave. I feel a bit better now. Refreshed. Except for the whole "I didn't do any grading this evening" thing.
