For my first ten or twelve years at PSU, I took pride in collecting script work on Tues. and returning in on Thurs., a two day turn-around. I worked my ass off on Wed. But this gave me a four-day weekend for my own work. As I got older, and my own work less pressing, I changed the rhythm to collect on Thurs. and return. on Tues. I now have four days to read student work - and usually need every one of them! Ah, the perils of aging ... |
"You can't fix it. You can't make it go away.
I don't know what you're going to do about it,
But I know what I'm going to do about it. I'm just
going to walk away from it. Maybe
A small part of it will die if I'm not around
feeding it anymore."
