Outrageously Good

I have one professor here I truly respect at the moment, and today he handed us back our long take-home midterms that he had graded. My final essay (of 4) was deemed "Outrageously good." It's so nice to get criticism that I feel is deserved and that I worked hard for.

Tomorrow is a day of insanity -- there is work at the Center, a lot of work to be done for Thursday and a presentation I'm giving, and some work-ahead on a chunk of lesson plans due next Monday. But, among other things, it's also the first day of counseling at the counseling center! I realize that tomorrow is only going to be intake, but I cannot wait to meet with someone who will nicely sit and listen to me ramble about my poor confusing career crisis with interest. And hopefully offer me some good problem-solving solutions so I can sort out my future.

But, I am also taking some time tomorrow night to visit with Kathryn and eat cheese puffs -- both extremely important things. I am truly becoming better at taking breaks and not freaking out about working ahead, and it's making me feel much more mentally healthy. Having said that, I really must get started on this literature research project...



On a totally random note, I wanted to post a picture of the Affianced and I at Notre Dame a couple weekends ago. Because we heart ND.
