Spring Break

I should be resting and regaining my stamina.  Instead I've helped with my son's Scout fundraiser and taken my daughter to get teeth extracted.  It's been a slower pace but with my locus of control being external it doesn't feel restful yet.

Regional Conference

I'll be going to a regional conference Thursday through Saturday.  These are more strenuous with less pay-off than the national conferences I go to.  Typically lots of driving, full days of meetings, and no time to do anything locally.  Some good talks, but a mix.  The main value to me is the networking and the chance to give a talk. It's a push to prepare for my classes for the week after I return, not a problem in January or August.

March Madness

Not the usual March Madness that I believe is related to basketball.  In March each year I have a conference, rehearsals for Easter choir, volunteering with the Scouts for their BBQ fundraiser, and scholarship interviews for my university.  For some reason more things are scheduled that I am required to participate in this month than any other month.

Tired, able to keep going on caffeine and momentum, crashing mentally when I am still too long.
