RUT

Why did I bother to work through lunch? Maybe that choice was counterproductive. I sat at my desk typing for 9 hours today. What do I have to show for it? A half a year's spelling tests and one lousy history pretest. The students are coming Monday. Yikes! I stopped working and went home because I could no longer think without food and a minute away from the computer.

I read in the paper tonight that most US workers waste 2 hours a day at work - not counting their lunch break. I find that doubtful. I think most people work hard. But some days, even when I'm working hard, I don't feel very productive. Do you ever have one of those days when you feel like you are spinning your wheels no matter how hard you try?
