Day 221: just the first of too many long days

This is dinner. 

Before you judge me, 

I need to whine. 

Just a little. 

Track started today. 

That means two hours of standing around 

after my normal work day four days a week. 

And then returning to my classroom to figure out 

what the heck I'm teaching the next day. 

Also somehow grading 140 lab reports in the next two weeks. 

Taking three classes during the afternoon/evening this week. 

Planning a bridal shower for Saturday in Bellingham 

and finding all of the necessary food, favors, decorations, etc. 

I'm a little stressed. 

Right now the thought of doing anything 

besides eating this pear and drinking this beer 

makes me want to cry. 

So far all of my April photos are of food and/or booze. 

It's that or work...
