the_rckNo sleep today. I’ve had to bail on curriculum night, too, because I’m just too exhausted to face going out and being around that many people for that long. Hopefully, there will be a simple way to sign up for parent teacher conferences. That’s really, from my point of view, the main point of curriculum night. If I’d been thinking earlier, though, I’d have asked some other parents to bring us copies of the handouts. Cordelia’s best friend’s parents parked in our driveway, and they’d have been happy to do it. I just failed to catch them to ask.
Cordelia very much doesn’t want or need us to do anything at all around her schoolwork. She’s clear on what she needs to do and asks for help if she needs it but otherwise just does it all without prompting. Last weekend, she knew she’d be busy Friday evening and all day on Sunday, so she dedicated Saturday to getting everything done and did actually get everything done. I told her today that there are people who put off work like that until they simply don’t have enough time to get it all done, and she didn’t believe me.
Scott got home too late to go to curriculum night in my place. It started ten minutes ago, and he’s only just starting his after work shower (which is really, really necessary if he’s going to be around people in a crowded space).
I’m probably going to let my continuous hacking streak die today, too, unless I can talk Cordelia into going out and doing it for me. It’s just beyond what I can manage now. The only reason I can manage writing this (and doing the other things I also must do before I crash) is that I just ate— butternut squash soup with pulled pork and green beans mixed in.
I have decided to run a tabletop RPG at UCon. I almost finished filling out the form earlier, but I had to go do something else. Last time I dealt with this form, it had a time limit after which it wiped all data, so I’m a little worried about that. Scott and I are also trying to work out logistics and finances and such for the convention, and I have to make decisions about things like what shape and size of table I need. I’m not sure whether I should ask for a four hour slot or a six hour slot. I’m not convinced of my ability to run for six hours straight, but I’m also not completely convinced that I can finish a game in four hours. This is a skill I want to acquire, not a skill I have at present.
I took my Zoloft about 4:00 this afternoon, so I'm hoping that's early enough that I can sleep tonight. I didn't feel like it was a good idea to take it in the morning today when I took it at bedtime last night.
