For me, Thursday starts on Wednesday night when I gather everything that I need for the next day, bathe, and pack myself into bed (hopefully not too late.)<\/p>\n

Thursday is my “long day”–so named because I’m gone from 7 to 6. Certainly, it’s not the longest day I’ve ever had–one semester, I did two 14 hour days every week–but it’s long enough that I need to be prepared ahead of time.<\/p>\n

So every Wednesday night, I put together my Thursday stuff.<\/p>\n

\"Thursday<\/p>\n

Clothes and shoes set out, down to jewelry? Check. (I’ll add my glasses as soon as I take them off this evening.)<\/p>\n

Bag of books, including graded papers to be returned and lab manual? Check.<\/p>\n

Anything extra needed for lab? Check. (This week it’s returning the flour, salt, pastry dowels, and pastry blender I used to make pie crust–and, of course, bringing along the pie crusts I made for demonstration.)<\/p>\n

Necessities for afternoon office hours and class? Check. (This week I’m not meeting with my dad for lunch, so I’ll have a spare hour to run home and grab the text and extra tests I’ll be administering during office hours. Usually, I’m a bag lady carting half a dozen bags around campus.)<\/p>\n

Computer off. That’s the tricky part.<\/p>\n

I’ve got to actually get off the computer and get to bed if I really want to have a successful Thursday.<\/p>\n

So, as Thursday starts for me, I bid you good night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
