Looking at my desk through my hacking cough and red-rimmed eyes... large pile of some 50 undergraduate papers left to grade... four overdue peer reviews of article manuscripts... one article of my own rapidly approaching deadline and another set of copy-edits untouched... one conference panel to organize and another workshop brief to write...a calender filled up with three job talks and three meetings next week and a whole slew of student meetings to follow... three dozen unanswered emails (sorry!)... two syllabi to put together for next semester... sounds like a perfect time for a much-needed game of fenceball with the kids. Sometimes blogging just doesn't quite make the cut. Yella!
... ah, much better. I'll stop whining now. But don't expect much blogging this week... it's that time of the academic year.
