This past week was an exhausted drag into fall break. Yeesh, Thanksgiving is a late one again this year, and it's been felt at the college by both students and staff. No classes all next week, but campus is open through Wednesday.
I worked in testing today with Sarge. It was a, thankfully, smooth and uneventful day. I have no tutees next week because of the break, so I'm in loaf mode since clocking out this afternoon.
This week also featured another birthday for me. I've had a few now. Coworkers bestowed this card upon me.
For my birthday last year, I was given a piñata (empty). He still lives at the testing center, and we named him Felipe'
Here is Felipe', last year during December finals (he doesn't normally have reindeer antlers) guarding a few beverages - his designated job.
So it'll be a small paycheck next round, but I'm looking forward to the time off. No major plans, but I'll think of something.
I also noticed the adjunct faculty whiteboard has been further adorned with decompressive thoughts, now that mid-semester is semester's end.
I'm hoping to get in some loaf time with good books - currentlly reading [The Wedding People] and am see-sawing on its goodness or badness - some nature time, and other chill pursuits. Tidying, that's always fun.
What's on your whiteboard?
Oh my gosh loaf mode. That is brilliant. I'm currently in loaf mode, vegging out after a bunch of fun kitchen time.
ReplyDeleteHappy, Happy, Happy Birthday!
Our whiteboard is up against the hallway wall because we haven't found a new home for it yet. I like having them. Usually we list chores and then check them off. Also cartoons that we draw to each other along with funny-to-us, sayings.
