Monday Monday

I'm having a productive day today. I wrote an assignment handout for my class tomorrow, developed a lesson plan in conjunction with a librarian who's coming to my class to give a presentation (so that issue from Friday is resolved), and have almost completed the reading assignment for tomorrow. All in all...a good day so far. I'm feeling all prepared and effective. Not too efficient, though: as often happens with teaching-related stuff, prepping for this class is taking a lot more time than I wanted to spend on it. I'll have to be more efficient in my planning, in the coming weeks. It should get easier...

I'm doing my usual Monday night knitting thing with the Seattle Purlygirls tonight (they meet at the Blue Star Cafe in Wallingford every Monday). Between now and then I'm planning to spend an hour or so finishing up this reading, then maybe doing some work on my dissertation. Tomorrow morning I'll finalize my lesson plan, make a few Powerpoint slides, and get my ass over to campus by 12:30pm (class is at 1pm).
