Let the games begin

Classes start tomorrow, and for a change, I am ready (sort of).

Syllabi done and copied? Check.

Met with co-teachers for team-taught course? Check.

Wrestled WebCT to a standstill so that it will follow my will instead of what passes for logic in its demented system? Check. Mostly.

Finished the merciless bear of a piece of writing that has been wrestling me to a standstill for the past three weeks? Check, thank God.

Still to go:

Background lecture ready for one of the classes? Um, no.

Check status of clothing other than the hiking/canoeing shorts I've been living in for the past few months? No.

Treat myself to the new calendar and other school supplies that I'd dearly love to buy? Not yet. That's a treat saved for Friday.
