Yes, knock on wood, I’m looking forward to a better week. Today, the sun was shining, I got to do my routine things – spin around the park, visit the bookstore, get some grading work done (several students still having trouble turning in assignments on time – which makes it harder to get grading done, of course!)
The perfect Sunday, really, when you think of it, is very uneventful.
