When did this Storm Begin*

Today was the last day of classes but I am numb to any real sense of relief. I think I'm just so exhausted that it has yet to register in my mind that I am almost free. The last week has been pretty intense. . .

Dance Concert was awesome. The End. On the flip side, it took a great deal of energy with all of the extra rehearsals, and it consumed my entire week.

Thus I found myself desperately trying to finish a paper Sunday afternoon--which I didn't quit working on until almost 6am Monday morning, and it still wasn't finished. I then had to get out of bed at 7:30am to go about my day. I then spent till 2am Tuesday morning finishing the stupid thing. . .Blah!

You can understand why I might have been a little loopy over the last couple days.

Oh, and for three consecutive Tuesdays now I have been awarded some sort of ticket. The first two were parking tickets, but tonight I got pulled over (I was speeding). This isn't a good trend. It makes me feel like there is a change in the wind. . . before this I have never actually received a ticket, and now three in a row. Bam, bam, BAM! Lady Luck seems to have deserted me. . .

Maybe, if I go to bed right now, I will get more than three or four hours of sleep tonight. That would be a welcome change.

Get some sleep. Just thinking about that type of schedule makes me exhausted.

I have experienced something like this also, a couple of times. It seems like once they figure out you exist, they have to make you sorry for doing so for awhile. But, this too will pass. Be careful, park legally, and slow down until you disappear from their radar (pun intended) again. I think it is close to 20 years now since I got a ticket (knock on wood) and I don't think I drive all that different than I used to. I guess that I am slowing down some when I drive, but not so you would notice. Good luck!
