Well, my unusual sleep schedule over break has finally caught up with me. It’s 5am, and I’ve not yet fallen asleep. I didn’t even get tired until after 4am, and by that point, I figured it was best if I just got up. An hour and a half of sleep would likely do more harm than good. All in all, this should make for an interesting teaching experience in four hours and a memorable start to the Spring 2005 semester. :)

Yesterday was surprisingly busy. I awoke at the crack of 1pm and started working on my syllabus. I showered around 3pm, shoveled snow from behind my car from 4-5pm, then had a salad for dinner and watched The Bourne Supremacy with my roommates. Then I worked on my syllabus a bit more, printed off the “final” copies, and headed to Stomping Grounds (coffee house) to meet with Julia at 7pm. We hung out there for an hour or so going over our syllabi and then headed to Target for a bit of shopping. I went for conditioner and paper, and left with over $100 worth of merchandise. I have a new coat for the not-freezing days and two nice new shirts, though. I dropped Julia off at her place around 9pm and headed to Welch Ave to help Doug celebrate his birthday. I hung around there, playing pool with Debs, until around 10:30pm, then I headed to campus to make copies of my syllabi. I got home shortly after 11pm, stapled my syllabi, went to bed, and promptly realized I’d made a typo on my 9am syllabus. I then laid awake thinking of various things until 4:38am, when I gave up, got out of bed, and made a pot of coffee. It’s going to be a long day.

Wish me luck, all. I get weird when I haven’t slept, so I’m worried I’m going to scare my kids. :) Maybe you should wish them luck instead.
