Wel... I have to go back to work today. The new semester has started and I have a whole new cohort of young minds to mold. [Actually, it is technically the same cohort as last semester, only these are the ones who didn't take may classes in the fall... you following this?]

I really don't want to go to work. It's not that I have a lot of cycling to do, and I know the semester ends in mid-April, just in time for the season [and I only teach one course in the summer, so I'll have a lot of time then]... I just feel cheated out of a holiday. I got sick with a bad cold this Xmas, and I never really got a chance to chill. [Ironic, that...]

I think I definitely need some time off, cycling in the Costa Blanca. Opinions?
