Woke up at 3:30, for some ungodly reason. Kind of groggy, but also thinking about various work things, so my brain wouldn't let me go back to sleep. Best just to get up and start churning through in that situation, I think. I suspect this is mostly start-of-school excitement; esp. for the fall semester, I tend to be a little bit buzzed for at least a few days before school starts. New beginnings! Cooler air! Wake, wake, sings the lark! Something like that, anyway. :-)
Sat:
e-mail ASAM faculty for grad student list updates -- DONE

read Elgin and decide if using for class -- DONE

Sun:

put away laundry -- DONE
Hiya,
Sorry you woke up so early, though with that huge a to-do list I would have, too!
Related to the concept of the start of the term, my friend Joyce posted a question about books for incoming freshpeeps, & it occurred to me that you’ll have EXCELLENT suggestions: http://joyce.livejournal.com/2151171.html

Sorry, didn’t get that link marked up properly before posting: Let’s say that you are involved in picking a book for freshmen to read…
