At some point I also need to pack for my 5-week sabbatical in the Lone Star State, a.k.a. "The Friendly State," a.k.a. "The State Responsible for Making Bush a Political Figure and Inflicting Him on the Rest of the Country," a.k.a. "The State That is Hotter Than Hell in the Summer Especially for a Woman Who Is Seven Months Pregnant," and a.k.a. "Home." While I greatly prefer packing to outlining, there's not much I can do since I only own a certain number of maternity clothes and I need to keep wearing them until I leave. That's going to have to be a last minute thing- but not too last minute since we really have to get on the road within an hour or two after my last final (also my hardest).
After realizing all of this today, I was determined to come home and Be Productive. I ended up staring at my laptop for 2.5 hours trying to create my Public Land outline, but I couldn't figure out how to organize it and therefore couldn't start it. I didn't bring home any other books and since I can't start packing, I needed another way to feel productive without doing school work-- which is why there are now cookies baking in my oven.
Cookies are productive. I might have just sat on my tush!
ReplyDeleteyay cookies!
ReplyDeleteDoes it make you feel any better that I have Bankruptcy Saturday, after which I have to help pack up the Law Review office and finish my paper, then I have Boy's graduation on Sunday, then I fly to New York and get settled in my studio on Monday, and start work on Tuesday?
No, I didn't think it would. But look at it this way: you don't have Bankruptcy, and you do have cookies.
Actually it does- your schedule is way worse! I can't imagine adding bankruptcy to my studying to-do list.
