goodnight

Haven't left the house today. It's gross in here and this photo is dumb. I've been harboring and cultivating this terrible cold for the last several days now. Last night, well early this morning, it decided to appear front and center. Had to cancel some appointments today, which people met with either complete understanding or derision. Always feel like I've let folks down, when I have to "call in." Tomorrow, I teach but they are doing peer review, so it shouldn't be too bad. Though, in reality, it might be worse just having to sit there, having to walk around and check in with everybody. It will make the day go slower. And then it's reading drafts for four straight days. I need to be shifting gears, concentrating on my dissertation now, but it's kind of impossible to do that when all these papers are mandated to be read. It will be so nice when I don't have to teach anymore, when I get to leave this school bit behind. Soon enough.
