You know how sometimes you have mornings when everything just clicks? You get up a little early, maybe, and so you have time for a leisurely cup of tea, and the baby and dog and fish get fed, along with you, and you remember all the little pieces of paper you were supposed to take the campus, and the traffic is better than usual. Now you're even earlier getting in, so you catch up on some little bits of grading and paperwork, and somehow you're looking at a clear desk before it's even time to teach, so you make another cup of tea and bask in the sense of virtue.
Those days are rare around here, but cherished when they appear.
Amusing that you don’t say explicitly whether today is, in fact, such a day. I hope it is!
For me, those mornings end with “…And then I woke up.” 🙂
