I am the Procrastinator. I have come to destroy you.

Here are all the things I have done instead of grade papers today:

  • Practiced my banjo for an hour.
  • Watched an episode of the Simpsons.
  • Eaten. Lots of meals. More than usual.
  • Wiped down the bathroom sink.
  • Finished The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman (started just yesterday - thanks, Margot!)
  • Looked up vegetarian recipes
  • Looked at futons online
  • Searched craigslist for futons online
  • Scrubbed down a pitcher that was put away wet and had little mold spots
  • Checked facebook. Lots of facebook. More than usual.
  • Read my cousin's blog.
  • Found banjo tabs and practiced more banjo.
  • Replied to everyone's facebook status that I have talked to within the past month. Basically.
  • Made my own status update.
  • Read, revised, and copyedited a Doctor Letter that Dad emailed me
  • Packed two boxes for our move on Saturday
  • Scheduled an orthodontist appointment
  • Washed my hair again.
  • Contemplated making cookies for my class's final tomorrow.
  • Wrote out a grocery list.
  • Teased my husband.
  • Made a livejournal post.


How many papers left to go?

12.

Out of 16.

I do actually have 19 students - 3 of which I have benevolently allowed to turn their papers in later than the deadline due to unconquerable emergencies.

If I weren't such a Principled Grader, I'd be done with these in minutes.

Be appreciative, studentia.

*Edit* Come to think of it, I should have Paper Grading looming over my head more often. I didn't realize how much I've actually accomplished today.
