Wit escapeth me...

Last week was Spring Break. I did many productive things. Such as:
  • Purchase a new bike.
  • Ride said bike.
  • Grade papers.
  • Work on quilt project.
  • Learn to knit lace.
  • Read the final 4 Harry Potter books for the zillionth time.
  • Sleep.
I blame the Harry Potter on the TV. Every once in a while, one of the stations declares that it is Harry Potter Weekend, and they show the first four movies, two a night. The fourth movie is so unsatisfactory compared to the book, that I always want to go back and read the book. And once I read the fourth book, I read the fifth book, and so on. Is there some kind of OCD that pertains only to consumption of narratives? Because I think I may have it.

Other than loving being on vacation, I've been feeling kind of blah lately. And now that vacation is over, I'm left with the blah, plus the guilt for all the actually productive things I promised myself I'd get done over vacation, but didn't. Can I have another week off, please? I promise I'll spend it in the library...

  1. Yeah, same here. Stupid TV. I definitely had a Saturday afternoon completely lost due to a Harry Potter movie marathon or something.

    Also, hooray for learning to knit lace. I need to learn to crochet at some point.
