Friday night
back-to-back
13-hour days
teaching, then
interviewing
with the personnel committee.
I should be
lounging in front of the television
watching March Madness
and eating junk food.
Instead
I am staring
at the computer screen
through blurry eyes
trying to make sense
of the presentation
I am supposed to give
at 9:00
tomorrow morning
while trying to ignore
the pleading eyes
of a sad labrador
who has not had a walk
since Wednesday.
That's tough, especially with the rest of your full life. I hope your presentation goes well and then once that is done, you can plop on the couch for several hours, eat some junk food and watch basketball. Then go get some fresh air and walk the dog. :)
ReplyDeleteMy dogs and I share your sentiments. We have added an hour to the school day for six weeks, and now are looking at possible extensions for the rest of the year. I typically work from 7-5... but now it's more like 7-6...by the time we have a late dinner, I feel myself crashing...gaining weight from lack of exercise and sheer exhaustion.
ReplyDeleteBest of luck with your presentation. Hope those tired eyes get some rest and sleep tonight!!
ReplyDeleteHope the rest will come after the presentation, Carol. What a week you've had. What happened with the dog? Must tell the footnote sometime!
ReplyDelete….and somehow you still managed this post. Impressive. Hope your presentation has gone well and you are happily watching March Madness. That's all we have been doing all day. Oh, the fun.
