The next few days are going to be pure Treadmilling. Sure, I’ll take breaks for food and showers and teaching, but I’ve scheduled myself for about 25 hours of Treadmilling in the next four days. Wednesday night I’ll print out my ol’ manuscript. Thursday I’ll copy and bind it, then off she goes to my dissertation committee. It’s not going to be as polished as I’d hoped, but I don’t think I’ll be embarrassed by it, either.
Yesterday I saw MacBeth at BAM. I’ll write up a review next weekend, but let me just say that if you’re able to get to New York to the Lyceum Theater (where the production is set to run next)–dude! It’s an amazing production. Seriously.
Before I get back to work, I wanted to note that I’ve joined Thoughts of Joy’s 2008 non-fiction five challenge. I plan to take a little time off from writing early in the summer, and this challenge seems like the perfect replacement for my treadmill time. I’ll decide on a list of books next weekend. Do you see a theme here? Next weekend is getting a mighty long to do list!
Hope you have a great week–I’ll catch you on the other end!
Welcome to the Non-Fiction Five Challenge, Beverly! I look forward to seeing your list. Happy Hunting and Reading! 🙂
Good luck on this week! Sounds like it will be busy.
Thats a lot of stuff for a to-do list! I make it a point to make as much stuff optional as possible. Obviously work deadlines must be met, but other than that, I try to just do want I want any particular day. I don’t knit gifts and I don’t join bookclubs– too much pressure not counterbalanced by pleasure. Edit, then play with the dogs, walk on the treadmill if you feel like it and read a book only if you want. No need for lists! (Just responding to your list rant. I can assure you mine is shorter than yours and I have kids– and a really good housekeeper)!!!!!!!!!Bev
