It's kind of a dramatic subject line, but I am shocked by the extent to which taking a day off from work on a weekend or even for a few hours one evening results in backing myself into a corner with a ridiculous amount of work to do in a short time. I have a presentation to do for my class Wed that I have not done the reading for, which I'd be ok with except that it's a presentation with another person who I need to coordinate with and whom I told I would have comments for by today. I have two classes to do a bunch of prep for for tomorrow. I have grading I haven't done yet that I slacked on this weekend since I didn't have a lot of pressure to get them done but that I should really hand back by tomorrow. I have like 8 other things to do for my classes this week, too, that I can barely allow myself to think about. I guess I just feel like it never stops, and that I feel so much stress around it all because each day just brings a whole lot more work.
On the bright side, class today went well. I just want to go to sleep now but I have hours' worth of work to do. Ugh. 8 more school days till spring break.
