Just a few, short weeks and I won’t have to be on campus, Tuesday evenings, until 8 p.m.! This is what the University’s like, when I’m dragging myself home. Truly: compressing all of my on-campus time into one day does mean that I get more of my own research done (no interruptions, I don’t have to dress well, or pack a lunch). It also means, though, that every Tuesday has been a frantic rush, from place to place, and an evening of exhaustion, followed by an unproductive day. No balance, in other words.
Just a few, short weeks and we’ll be back in California for the holidays. We’re both frantically trying to finish up our set tasks, before we leave: T. is putting the finishing touches on her latest novel, and I’m trying to get my surveys finished and tested, so that I can launch them while we have face-to-face access to lots of Californians (I am, after all, considering cultural factors in the survey analysis).
Just a few, short weeks and I’ll get to tease the relatives in person that I know what they’re getting for Christmas. Bwahahaha.
May the days go by quickly for you till you return to California. 😉

Stop with the evil laughter! 😐
You know while I liked the idea of cramming everything into one day on campus, I always found it unproductive because just like you said, I’d get home exhausted and the next day, I’d still be exhausted from the hard work of the previous day.
Hmmmm, I can’t tell, you are going home… someone is excited 😛
