Manic cleaning, less manic studying

Feb 21, 2006 07:54

Last night, after my Jazzercise class, I couldn't sit still. I went grocery shopping, made dinner, washed dishes, washed and folded loads of laundry, wiped up crumbs, swept, mopped up jelly stains on the linoleum that have probably been there for weeks...and I couldn't stop. Not to sit down, not to study. Finally, I took a shower and climbed into bed. Exhausted, I still couldn't fall asleep, for what seemed like hours. Every time I looked at my clock, another hour ticked by. I kept waking up. Finally, at 6 am, I gave up, ate breakfast and go dressed. I'm at the law library earlier than I have been *all year*. There is something seriously different about me.

Yesterday, I saw a fellow law student reading "Shadow Rising" by Robert Jordan (book 4 of the Wheel of Time). I wanted to go over to him to say, "yeah, that was a pretty good one," but resisted b/c I'm kind of afraid of him. (He sits behind me in tax and is really tall and has a very large ego.) I've notice many law students have very large egos. They tend not to be the law students that I'm friends with.

On NPR this morning, heard a great essay about the Elder Wisdom Circle, an advice organization that draws upon the wisdom on senior citizens. I thought it was a great idea. I always call Grandma Fanny for advice (or recipes or technological know-how).

I'm up in tax today. Better get my study on. Somehow, I lost my calculator :( It may have been $5, but it has served me well.
