I’m dragging! I’ve just returned from a week of finance and strategy and am anxiously looking at the next five days in which I must make up the classes I’ve missed and attend three company dinners. I am daunted by the prospect, and my optimistic plans to do laundry and start on homework are dashed as soon as I got on the train at the airport. I haven’t even unpacked and frankly, don’t see it happening in the next few hours. I don’t remember feeling this tired last term, and I wonder if I’ve already lost my touch.
I checked my email on Wednesday night and after seeing that I had 117 messages waiting, I was so overwhelmed, I just exited without looking at even one message. Upon checking on Thursday, now fortified enough to delete, I find an invitation to lunch with a CEO on Wednesday. Oops! I wrote an apology, but what are you gonna do? Now blessed oblivion!
