Back to the salt mines tomorrow

But you know what?

By not doing much work at all during spring break, I think I replenished my energy stores to make it through the final six weeks of the semester.

Sure, there's work on my desk to slog through and the pile could be a little lower if I'd attacked it during my break -- but I honestly needed the rest more.

I'm beginning to actively look forward to the Alaska trip -- it's finally beginning to seem real.  The way I figure it, I'll have just enough strength left to haul my ass onto the ship before I collapse, as the trip itself begins right when semester grades are due.

I guess I'd better fix my ticket in the next few days while I'm thinking about it.
