Two days til Spring Break!!
\nThis morning I feel like I really, really need a week off, believe me. I’m heading home after my afternoon class tomorrow – a class which I suspect will be curiously shorter than usual. Then I’m home for ten and a half days!!
\nI’m doing my best to wrap things up here, to minimize the homework. I have mid-term papers from all three classes, so there’s a lot of correcting to get through; for two of the classes, part of what I’m correcting is the students’ ability to use APA documentation, which is not particularly exciting, to say the least. Needless to say, I’m engaging in a lot of internal pep talks:
\n“You can do it, Maggie!”
\n“Yes, but I don’t want to.”
\nThankfully the weather is encouraging – this morning, though still stupidly cold, is bright and sunny, and the forecast looks warmer.
\nAnd let’s face it – the world just looks better in widescreen. My new machine is wonderful – I’m impressed, Dr. T (who is, after all, a computer guy) is impressed, and the techie people at school, who took care of my new baby for a couple of hours yesterday, installing network thingies, are impressed.
\nSuffice it to say that I’m happy – if not for this perpetually growing stack of corrections. Grr.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
