Ugh. That was a longer-than-planned hiatus. I lost much of November to bronchitis.
Two weeks of class are left. Classes are going fine, the only hitch being a class full of shy, introverted first-year students who are afraid to say anything in class. Stimulating discussion, or even getting them to ask basic questions about assignments, is tough.
My college is hiring in an important campus-wide position, and all of the interviews will be in the next two weeks, so I need to fit in going to those presentations / receptions / Q&A sessions to get a sense of the candidates.
I'm also trying to finish up an abstract to submit to a conference within the next week, and finish up with the books I borrowed from interlibrary loan before the librarians come after me with sticks.
Add in getting ready for the holidays, illness and other drama in the family, and it's been a hectic few weeks.

I've got some of those interloan books, too. I managed to renew them once, but I'm not going to get away with that a second time!
