It's Wednesday, again
Exams next week, then T-Day
All week for grading

Then, on to whining,
requests for extra credit.
Need a time machine!

EdnaMode

Week and a half left
Then time for sleep and breathing
And some catching up
I never look back, darling. It distracts from the now.

Dictator-in-Chief,
Wants to start a coup today-
Ready to rumble?

evil_physics_witchcraft

Too much shit going on,
Not enough time to grade labs.
When will I do this?

OneMoreYear

Eek! I'm so behind!
I swear I'll finish grading
Not much sleep tonight

Began the class with
Very best of intentions
But have planned too much

A slow-trawling hawk
Flapping watchfully over
vole-enriched meadows.
Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.

Reprove not a scorner, lest they hate thee: rebuke the wise, and they will love thee.

Give instruction to the wise, and they will be yet wiser: teach the just, and they will increase in learning.

OneMoreYear

So today it's been
10 hours of back to back
Virtual meetings

Now I can't get up
My butt is glued to the chair
Help, I think I'm stuck.




evil_physics_witchcraft

Ten hours is nuts.
I sympathize for lost time.
It's time for a break.

mamselle

Will you please slow down?
Turkish Rondo is not meant
to wobble and fall!
Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.

Reprove not a scorner, lest they hate thee: rebuke the wise, and they will love thee.

Give instruction to the wise, and they will be yet wiser: teach the just, and they will increase in learning.

I thought yesterday,
was Wednesday and not Tuesday.
Time has lost meaning.

evil_physics_witchcraft

Time for Sudoku.
My brain doesn't want to think
About student grades.

OneMoreYear

Finishing grading
Tomorrow's a holiday
Turn off work email.

Then just two more weeks
'Till the semester's over
We've almost made it.

OneMoreYear

Six meetings today
Seven hours virtual
Butt glued to the chair

EdnaMode

Student told me to
F*** off during Zoom lecture
Removed him from class

Other students, shocked
I carried on with lecture
It's always something
I never look back, darling. It distracts from the now.

I have some papers and exams still to come, but the bulk of my work for this semester is now done.
I do need to reply to a couple of student emails. I prefer to do that after the grades are submitted.
But it is only Dec 9 and I can start thinking about other things. That feels good.
