This is always one of the hardest days for me. We passed the "hump" day, but are still on full-on mode. It's not until tomorrow that we have a better idea of what our pacing needs to be for the last two days of grading. Thus, today was a bit of a slog. It didn't help that I was so tired. I even got out of my seat and did a few push ups to keep the blood flowing.
I know that I've gained a little bit of weight just due to my rather sedentary schedule, not to mention the great food, this week. However, I've been good about not snacking during the breaks, and I even avoided those wonderful fresh-baked chocolate chip cookies at lunch ... I did not, however, avoid the ice cream sundae bar or the small slice of tiramisu. This place is certainly awash with food temptations.
Once again, I had to come directly back from working to get my class assignments done. Although one was a little bit more frustrating (due to technical issues) than I had expected, I am caught up for the time being. That means I can go to the Viking exhibit tomorrow with a clear conscience.
