We are in the long twilight of the semester, when time goes both slowly & quickly. Does that ever happen to anyone else? When the days seem to go by at a relatively good clip, only to come evening and realize that its only Tuesday?
It feels like it should be Thursday today, not Wednesday. I woke with a definite Thursdayish sensibility.
Classes aren't difficult to teach right now {though I am having to talk rather fast to be sure I cover everything that needs covering}, there isn't really anything to do for office hours & there are no proverbial fires to put out. No panics, no time constraints, just a general quick slowness.
My husband feels it too, & so do the Things-- all the residents of Cecilia are a bit out of whack. Wait. The pets are good. So there's that.
I think its all just the downside to knowing the semester is about to end-- everything is on hold right now while we wait. And on the other side of this twilight are the piles of things that want doing for the holidays. Technically I could be doing them now, of course, but why? The endless idleness of break is coming-- I can almost touch it. If only it would get here. Sigh.
And so I surf...
For today's web wanderings, I went a-browsing for the men in my life. So many cool Etsy artists to choose from {and get inspired by}~*

Thanks for the ideas! I am always at a loss for ideas for the guys I buy for.
ReplyDeleteMy shopping is not going anywhere at all... :( I hate shopping actually. You have some great ideas here though. Good inspiration! I feel like you, that it's got to be later in the week. Not sure what's going on.
ReplyDeleteI have the hardest time buying for men! Particularly my boyfriend and Dad, well on second thought just throw my brothers in there too.
ReplyDeleteThat gameboy soap is genius though!! I just had to click it.. may even become a stocking stuffer.
