Neither Grading NOR Teaching

[oneirophrenia]

Saturday, I didn't feel so hot so I didn't go to Pittsburgh as per usual...and spent a good part of the evening grading papers so I wouldn't have to worry about it Sunday.

Then, seventeen students sent me late stuff that HAD to be done by today. So I spent all of Sunday grading, like, a hundred freakin' papers.

Guess what I get to face today and tomorrow?

....Christ, I hate the last week of class. Anyway, here's a brief breather before I go right back to the grind:

Name 5 of life's simple pleasures that you like most, then pick 5 people to do the same. Try to be original and creative and not to use things that someone else has already used. Tag 5 people on your list.

1. Sleeping with my warm fuzzy cat on a cold night
2. Reading about cool techy/sciencey stuff
3. Chocolate cookies with peanut-butter chips (SO GOOD)
4. Having a good, long scratch (my skin is always dry and itchy, and nothing feels as good as scratching)
5. The feeling of flexible, warm well-being that briefly descends when the Vicodin takes away the eternal soreness and lets me feel young and healthy for a few hours.

Hey dude, you wouldn't happen to be going up to pittsburgh this friday would you? If so I could use a ride.

Highly unlikely, alas. The semester ends this Friday, I am unimaginably exhausted, and all I want to do is sleep.

However, I *am* going up on Saturday! If you still need a lift then, count me in....

Well, I'll be in town this weekend--Saturday, most likely--and, yeah, I'll almost certainly be a C-Money on the 17th also! The semester will be over, so I'll actually have time to go out and do stuff like a real human being again...provided, of course, I don't end up damnear crippled from this fucking fibromyalgia, which has been beating me up BIGTIME lately.
