Afternoon of Procrastination

[cathschaffstump]

Yet again discovering that my life as a writer and my life as a professor do not always compliment each other.

I haven't been able to write for two days, because of teaching and a board meeting tonight, and I'm beginning to feel aggravated. Restless. Full of rue.

Kanga and little Rue? Big Rue. Really big Rue.

This afternoon of strange word play bought to you by not getting to chapter 5, and by Compass/ESL documents.

How do the rest of you balance writing life and that thing wot you've got to do to make money come in?

though I complain about teaching, I think my writing is more 'dynamic' throughout the year. And even though work 'clogs' up my brain, it seems that I need the extra stimulation to think about and work through the writerly stuff.

I like the teaching, I just complain because as we know, there's not enough time in the year. But yeah, I think teaching helps me overall.
