The semester, timetable-wise, is already interesting. Each week is going to be a long week, and each late night is going to feel like, well, an eternity. The next twelve weeks are stretching out...a long way ahead.
Last night, I discovered that the textbook I ordered for one course was not the one in the bookshop. Today, I confirmed it. I felt...I felt...
I felt just like this fountain...roughish edges and all. A spray.
A bit of a spray |
I needed a little bit of calming. Wrong text and prepared course outline now need to be aligned. That is going to be one heck of a weekend job. I'm not exactly happy about it. I had so much to do this weekend. Oh well.
Bubbles and lily pads... calming |
Then, out of the blue, another ABC request, this time the local SunCoast station for a bit of an afternoon chat on the Thursday Project with a colleague. Just like last week, it was a last minute request to fill in for a sudden absentee. Off I went, always happy to oblige. We covered a few topics of interest and relevance.
It did mean getting back late to work to continue preparing tomorrow's class (it's OK, I've double-checked the text, they got that one right). That's why I have nothing but night shots tonight. Somehow, all the time in the day and it all went so quickly. Before I knew it, the day was almost over.
At least by the end of it, the initial spray had turned into something of a smoother flow.
Smoothing out the rough edges |
But we know, dear reader, it is just a trick of the eye, a flick of the camera dials. The lens disguises that we sometimes do not wish to see...
