Ugh, Hil. No doubt the stress makes it worse as well. Is there some time during this time period where you can indulge in something renewing and relaxing to ease the stress, both physical and mental.
Tara: That was funny if you've studied Taglarin mystic rites and... are a total dork... Riley: Then how come Xander didn't laugh?

Spike's Bitches 49: As usual, I'm here to help you, and I... are you naked under there?
Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Not really. I've got to go to a faculty lunch thing today. (Which isn't technically required, but I've been told that I've been skipping too many of them, so I've got to go.) Then tomorrow I'm teaching all day.

I'm sorry, I hope you can doing something for yourself this weekend as a reward.

Cincinnati Comic Expo is this weekend, and most of the Firefly cast will be there, but I'm not sure if I'll be too tired or in pain to go. I didn't get a ticket in advance, but they usually still have single-day tickets to buy there, so I'll see.

I survived today. Dinner was weird -- we'd ordered from Chipotle, and they printed out the labels showing everything we'd ordered correctly, but then the actual bowls seemed to contain completely random assortments of ingredients that didn't at all resemble what any of us had ordered. One of them was vegan, though, so I ate that one. Kept my TENS unit on my back for most of the day.
Tomorrow, I'm teaching three classes, and then doing this whole exam thing again. (Today was no classes during the day -- just some meetings and working on stuff.) I'm sort of functional. Not sure how I'll be tomorrow.

Got a bit of sleep. Then rolled over and dislocated my shoulder. So that woke me up. Argh.

Good luck and ~ma, Hil.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Ugh, Hil. Good vibes to get through today the best you can.

~ma for a painless day, Hil.

I got through my morning classes. I apologized to the students for being completely spacey today, said that I would have taken a sick day if there weren't about twenty people who'd murder me if I took a sick day on an exam day, and handed out a worksheet and put the answers on the overhead projector. And fixed several students' calculators. (That was mostly just clearing the memory to restore the factory defaults, because they'd accidentally deleted things they shouldn't have deleted.)
