Weekend Update

How Saturday Night Live am I right now? Don’t answer that...

This weekend was one of those... I had a fair amount of editing to get through, an ‘undiminishing’ pile of essays to mark and what seems like a never changing stack of papers from years ago to send out for recycling. I have a lot of stuff...

I got the bad news late Friday afternoon – EDITING MUST BE DONE BY MONDAY – I hate editing my own stuff mostly because there is always some form of self loathing that comes with it but also because I just don’t see the errors a fresh pair of eyes will. Friday night began greatly enough, I got my new mobile yayness... So instead of editing I decided to play 12 rounds of ‘getting to know your mobile’ that was fun lasted to till tenish which when I started reading DH Lawrence couldn’t put it down so I read to 5am until I got text from H telling me to get some sleep... I could sense her disapproval in the message, amazing she can still scold me from miles away. By the way H is away for a week, which is bumming because now I have to watch Ellen by myself. Don’t you dare judge me! ;)

Saturday I did some serious editing, well sort of, after about four hours of feeling like a pompous you know what I decided time to take a break before the self loathing found me. So spent the next four hours or so watching Heroes season three OMG is all I have to say OOOO EMMM friggin GEEE! My excitement bled onto the couch and my poor nerves could barely take it let alone my poor nails! I am not sure Kring is good for me, at one point I was soo confused I had to make mental notes of things like in a lecture but maybe I was just slow to the uptake... but OMG OMG it rocked! After my little reprieve with Heroes I went back to work (marking)! Which sucked because I really wanted to go to the show with DJ and see Prime Circle and what not but my luck refused it? So like a good little worker I edited to 2am watched a bit of Ryan Seacrest (what..?) then went to bed. Which brings us to today which included much more editing, hours on the phone with parentals and little sister and H, church with DJ and discussions about the upcoming garden party, which I am to attend as a Bee? Yes I am suppose to pretend I am a kid again and dress up like I would. Yeah... Ok when I was a child... I dressed up like grown up to the parties... So can I come as journalist?? I like that idea...

I am hoping this week has great things in store for me. I have a good feeling about it. Sleep tight bloggers and stay clear of those subconscious stalkers.
