Just a hello, as I don't have much new to say. Another very busy
day, and my thoughts have had little opportunity to move away from
concentrating on work. I do have my very last class of this
semester today. I wouldn't have had to meet, except the prof's
father got sick last week and she had to cancel last week. I
didn't even have time to check the ACM site or the Harvard class, or
anything. I've been doing yoghurt and a banana for lunch on and
off, but when I went to the cafeteria to buy it, everyone was eating
fried chicken.
I find myself wishing I had more of a break coming up. I've got to
literally force myself to go to Florida, as I keep wavering. I'll
just have to get up the Saturday after my last final on Friday night
(next
week) and just GO. I've been debating about just making it a one
day visit and not staying except for Sunday. What I really,
really, really need is a day or two at home, not working and with no
school. I'm no I'm working this out as I write to you, but perhaps the
best plan would be to just go down there, visit on Sunday, drive back on
Monday, then have Tuesday off at home, returning to work on Wednesday,
or perhaps, I could return, work on Tuesday, then take the next Friday
off or something. I'll have to think about it, but I'm moving more
and more to not making all my days off from work coincide with just a
trip to Florida, and then not having any days off here at all, a big
need.
Sorry to gyrate you through my obsessive thoughts about how to work a
3-4 day visit/trip into only a week of "freedom" and still get
regrouped, rested, restored, and allow time for myself, to get ready to
start the three class hurdle for the summer. Take care, Elizabeth
