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.

omigosh!

It's 5:00 and I'm done with work! And not even a "but tomorrow will suck" kind of done - really done and feeling like I'm where I need to be. AWESOME.

Monday's to do list (I used to just make them a day or two ahead, now I tend to make the full week the Friday before and maybe add the following Monday or Tuesday during the week) includes remaking my November calendar. I printed out a new page from iCal with some additional items (such as the department meeting) but I really need to redistribute the (hand-written) textbook revision duties. I sort of did that on the original printout, in pen on my original pen writing, and it just needs fixing. Tidying and fixing.

Okay! I am getting out of here!
