An update (see Nov. 15 post)

I'm leaving Madison in 32 4 days. Between now and then I have to buy the remaining things I need for the trip, pack my backpack, put the rest of my belongings into storage, buy my Christmas presents, figure out my health insurance, defer my loans, celebrate Thanksgiving, grade 53 student papers, proctor my students' exam, grade 53 student exams, write revise a short story, and write two one term papers.

Breathe.
