Worked: 5:30 - 2:00, 6:00 - 9:00 (11.5 hours)
I've been wrasslin' and wrasslin' with this school year, and feel like the school year has just performed a butt drag on me. The grading, the kids, the prep, the department chair paperwork, the consulting work, the Metalhead Guild insanity that my Thursday lunches have become...yep, they've all coalesced in one giant butt drag.

Not a single hour worked over the weekend, and now I feel both a) guilty and b) incredibly behind.

Worked: 6:00 - 2:00, 4:00 - 7:00 (11 hours)
Spent: $20 on color printer ink for maps of Napoleon's empire
The week started off yesterday with one of those days that make me feel lucky and gratified and thankful and oh so pleased with myself and my teaching skillz and my students and my colleagues. Today began with a late start, a 1st period oozing with ennui and exhaustion, and a rest-of-the-day chock full of students asking questions such as "Wait, you have a class website?!" No, the website that is on your syllabus and that I mention EVERY DAMN DAY doesn't actually exist.
Le sigh.
