rebeccmeisterMy sister has the best t-shirts. This week I keep thinking about the one she has that says, "Every Day I'm Brusselin' " with an illustration of brussels sprouts. There are a lot of copycat images on the internet that do not do justice to the design and artistry on that shirt.
Anyway, that's the sentiment of the now. Today looked like:
-Emergency pinch-hit rowing coaching because one of our coaches was just in a terrible car crash where someone rear-ended them (don't yet know how serious the injuries are, that takes time).
-Dentist appointment - minimal gum bleeding and no major actions required, WHEW.
-Receive shipment of 24 large gray crayfish*, spend a good 90 minutes preparing the tanks to house them, house them.
-Act as a facilitator for an institutional strategic planning listening session.
-Write a quiz for tomorrow.
-Meet with manuscript coauthor and apologize for being slow to make progress.
-Review/prep to teach (mammalian, basic, introductory) kidney function.
Part of me wants to go on the weekly social bike ride tonight, but the prudent part of me suggests I should just go home and collapse in a heap.
At least next Tuesday is the last Lab of the semester.
*I think I put in the order for these about 5 weeks ago? They were backordered and I was about to completely pull the plug and do something different to replace the lab, except when I requested to cancel the order I learned they'd shipped, sigh.
