papers, etc

[rivendellrose]

You know that feeling you get when you hit a certain point in writing a paper and your brain just says "Nope, no more. We're tired. We want a break"? Yeah, I've hit that.

I'm on page four of my Scandinavian mythology paper (due tomorrow, I should point out, because I am a slacker freak) and... my brain just died. I think the tylenol is helping, but I also think I might need to go take a quick walk or something to clear my head. I've got a fair number of notes to go through, still, and I have a good idea of where I'm going, it just seems that I've run into a lot of problems the last hour or so, and now I'm feeling a bit panicky. It wouldn't be so bad if I didn't have practice for the performance group at 7:30... I hope they're not planning on this going for very long. I will seriously scream if they keep me late and I need to get back and work on the paper still. I went over my lines this morning, though, and they seemed to go fairly well. I'm just so fried right now.

I'm supposed to do a little presentation on my topic for English tomorrow, too. And hand in an extra response paper. Blargh. And then there's the Shakespeare paper...

I'm so toast.

Yeah. Going on a walk. Gonna go walk under trees and let my mind rest for a bit, and maybe ask for a bit of inspiration, too. It certainly can't hurt.

Oh, I hope that the walk helped! I'm sorry that you have that stupid performance thing tonight,
sure hope it goes quickly.
Wondering what your schedule looks like for tomorrow, I have goodies for you, as per earlier conversations, and I don't know that I'm comfortable mailing fudge if it doesn't NEED
to be mailed (besides, you know I always love
any excuse to see you) If tomorrow doesn't work
perhaps another day would be easier for you.
*HUGS*

Tomorrow's no good - we have another author lecture at 4:30, so I'm booked straight through til whenever that's over, unfortunately, and then I have yet another paper to work on. How's your schedule on Tuesday?

I'm not sure if Tuesday will work or not. Sasha and Irene have both asked for Tuesday off, so it could be ugly with a capitol UG! We talked to Sandy about how we thought that it should be handled, but of course she seldom wants to do it the way that would be easy for the employees, so we'll see how she decides to work it. Talked to Jeff yesterday, he said that AAA may be hiring for summer work (office, 8-4 Monday through Friday) They have 1 temp person right now, but she is supposed to be leaving in June. He's going to talk to them about the possibility about you getting on there. (I know that you want to work up in the U, but I thought I would check into in for a "just in case" you can always turn if you get it, but end up finding something better up there. Anyway, will let you know about Tuesday later today when I know more, ok? What other days are ok with you just in case Tuesday doesn't work. Guess it may have to hold off till the weekend, or next week if you're busy for the weekend, sounds like you are just in "CRAZY TIME" mode up there, as per usual for this time of year.
Will stop rambling now!
Hope your day goes better than yesterday.

Summer work at AAA would be great.... assuming I could find a way to *get* there. I'm sure we can work something out somehow, though... where is the office?

I'm sorry tomorrow doesn't work for you, but Wednesday or Thursday would be just fine for me, or even the weekend if that's all that works for you.

Hi, guess what? Tuesday is no good for me.
Yeah, Sandy didn't take our suggestion on how to work things out for tomorrow, so we have our regular day, and Sasha and Irene are BOTH off tomorrow. Unless she's got something I don't know about planned, it's not going to be a fun day!
Let me know how the rest of your week looks, or when you think a good time for you will be, OK?
Hope today went ok for you and that you don't
have another awful paper leaning over your shoulder causing you mass stress tonight. *PATS*
