Burnout

I am borderlining on burnout today. Not as bad as I was last night which, I suppose, is positive. I think that the fact that I'm taking four classes as well as starting the semester out ill has really taken its toll. I am tired both physically and mentally. My mind is foggy on a regular basis. Perhaps I should get some ginkobaloba (or whatever it is) and enhance my memory. This semester seems to be flying by but I feel like I haven't done anything yet. We're supposed to be getting published but I'm not sure that anything that I will write is worthy of publication. I suppose my negative perception of my own abilities is not particularly useful in this type of situation. Oh well. It's there and I can't do much about it. I need encouragement and evaluation in a positive light.

I can't wait for this summer. I will be teaching for the first time which makes me both nervous and excited! I am looking forward to the experience. It's only for three weeks, 2 hours a day, 4 days a week. Not bad at all. Plus, I will be going to Alaska and California for the first time which is amazing. I just hope I can make it until then. *sigh* I can't wait to spend a few days lounging by the pool (probably reading, but that is ok).
