Still very busy. Have been writing a paper for the last 36 waking hours. Getting sicker. Won't sleep much tonight because of the paper. And the other paper. Less annoyed.

I got my course evaluations back today (you know, where students critique me, my teaching, and the course that I teach). As with last semester, my students thought I was a good teacher (the main theme this semester was that I am "nice"). I won't list the majority of comments like I did last time, but I will relay my favorite. Under "Constructive Suggestions for the Instructor", one student wrote, "Get a haircut." The sad part is that a student said something similar last semester.

Thanks for the tips.

It's the end of the semester, so everybody on campus is a little stressed out. And by a little stressed out, I mean that everybody is freaking out and encroaching on my sense of calm with their toxicity. It's enough to make me want to get away from everyone, so here's a notice to everybody: "Stop harshing on my mellow ... or else I'm going to go golfing until you chill out." At least, I would go golfing, but I have to go do more of my work in advance so that I don't end up like everybody else. That, and it snowed today (forget that it was 70 two days ago; this is Michigan).

I don't really have all that much to say today. The semester is over in two weeks. I've been working hard. I'm tired. I'm going to go ahead and go to bed. How's that? Not enough? Okay then. Also,
