Reve

What I've read so far today:
* Generation Catalano, the idea of a microgeneration of those born during the Carter administration (i.e. my birth year and the three after)
* Letters from Mister Rogers that about destroyed me with wonderfulness
* About 14 pages of my own writing, now copiously filled with notes.

I'm in the middle of making the edits to the digital copy. The pages are a reread of Chapter 6, though from the number of changes I'm making you would be forgiven for thinking it's the first pass, and the first pass through section 8.2, which I have a suspicion I may have edited electronically after printing out the copy I edited manually today. Perhaps only by adding an exercise. We shall see. I try not to get ahead of myself and do things all interleaved; it seems like that would lead to me coming back later and saying "wait, I thought I fixed that" and realizing I fixed it on paper but failed to transfer it to the file.

Today's to do list is looking really good. 8.2 is actually off of tomorrow's list, though I have an item from yesterday's that I just don't want to do so I'm procrastinating by swapping it out with later items (structured procrastination ftw!). After I get the edits done, the rest of today's list will be two meetings, office hours, and making the next online homework assignment. I may be done with all but my 4:00 meeting by 3:00, in which case I can get ahead and maybe leave early one of these days that I don't have a late afternoon meeting.

Only six more posts to a successful Blogtoberfest! They've been riveting, I know. You can hardly stand the thought of the end to daily posting.

LiveJournal doesn't want me to post there, so I'll post here and crosspost. I'm getting a "content encoding" error when I try to load the update page. My first ever dreamwidth post!

Sleepy sleepy. I woke up at 3 this morning and was awake for an hour, following difficulty getting to sleep last night. I don't know why in either case. I was coughing, but not much, and it wasn't that I would get almost to sleep and then cough myself awake again - I never got even close. In the wee hours I put a Halls in my mouth, which may not have helped but certainly didn't hurt, and of course woke up with that unshakeable Halls morning breath. Withstands teeth brushing and gargling, and makes those first few sips of coffee taste awful!

My to do list for the week is getting all garbled together, partially because I realized I have a career counseling meeting on Friday that was in the purse calendar but hadn't made it to the desk calendar. And because one of the things that was on today's list just takes too much attention span on a day that I (a) am tired and (b) know there is a cap on my time. That always makes it hard to concentrate. So I have worked ahead a little bit and am leaving that one item for later on. Fortunately I can stay late Tuesday through Thursday so I should be good for a no-work weekend despite an abbreviated Friday.

Well, I need to ponder my embroidery class for tonight, because I was caught up in preparing materials for it yesterday, knowing that couldn't be done at work but this could, and hopefully finish lecture notes through Friday, because that would be an entire item off tomorrow's list. Cheerio!
