dchenesIt's nice that I forget what "burned out" feels like, but it sucks when I remember. I've been remembering for the last two weeks. Mostly it means I'm always cold, and I eat too much because I'm overstressed (and cold), and I go to bed an hour early to keep getting up in the morning from being a major annoyance. And I have to be very careful not to say what I'm thinking. (It does not help that I got stuck answering the main phone, the Dean's phone and my phone this morning, in the midst of trying to get the January P&R meeting materials online.)
Meanwhile, I'm apparently supposed to be extremely upset about various political and/or social issues, but I don't want to spend all of my spare time being upset.
However, today is one day closer to Thursday, and on Thursday the office closes at 2:00 and we all go bowling for the afternoon. And then I don't come back to work until January 3. That is a lovely thought. So is the thought that I'm not traveling until Saturday morning, so I can have Friday absolutely off.
