So today began with such energy, but I got tired before long and needed a whole lotta coffee just to stay awake, though so far the research has been exhilirating if exhausting--I could see doing this for a living, or at least up to to a point... Other than that, just various committee-type manuevers, but little else beyond that, besides being marooned alone at home without an overcommitted Joephet and tons of work to finish, somehow. But with a mere 8 days left before break, and two of those consumed by parent-teacher conferences and a multicultural extravaganza, it's pretty much all clear sailing from here on out.
