spaced out

Do I have office hours this morning? NO!!! Did I nonetheless race onto campus through all kinds of traffic in order to be here for them? YES. I clearly need a good night's sleep (a necessary pleasure that has entirely eluded me this week).

This about covers my state of being; iPhone photo credit goes to MP2, with whom I had a great conversation yesterday morning. He has settled into an excellent year at UNT, thinks he gave his best audition ever, is super happy he is finally in a jazz combo and has graduated from the ranks of classical lessons. Maybe in a week's time I'll feel all settled into the new school year, too. I take comfort in the fact that MP1 seems to share my current state of mind--it takes a while to get back in the groove.

That you even bothered to rush to campus after thinking you had office hours is, well, commendable. Can't tell you how many folks don't even bother (and I've been guilty of the same). Students rarely show up -- and when they do it's usually only before big essays are due. Email has dramatically changed the face of student-prof contact (at least it seems that way to me).

Here's to a less spacey next week! (Sorry about the sleep issues...)
