More specifically, during essay writing time.
Well, folks, it's that season again. The birds are singing, the buds are blooming (Yes. In upstate New York, the buds are just now blooming and we do not yet have leaves on the trees), and the students are inside, studying while their souls are breaking.
I am very poetic.
I'm supposed to be writing an essay about civil religion in America and why many Americans are suspicious when the Supreme Court turns to international sources for guidance in deciding domestic policies. It's an interesting essay. I know the material. But I've been working for over 24 hours and all I've got is too paragraphs. It's due at 5:00 tomorrow, so I need to step up the pace, but jeezus, does this thing slog.
Ah well.
Okay! Enough complaining.
School let's out in just over a week. I'll probably be home for an entire two days before going to Israel to visit family, and then I'll be back two weeks after that for an entire three to four days before coming back upstate to do research. If any of you want to get together while I'm home, let me know. I'd love to see people and get out of the house. :D
