Free at last, free at last, thank God almighty, free at last!

Last week was my last week working for "Huron State" until fall, which means that for the next two months I'm only working half-time at Suburban Public Library. I've spent the last few days revelling in my newfound freedom to do things like wash clothes, read books, buy groceries, read e'mail, make telephone calls, swim in the pool my rent money pays for, and cook real breakfasts rather than gnawing on cold, chewy bagels while driving through deranged bumper-to-bumper commuter traffic. Living, in other words, without timing everything to the minute to fit into the miniscule crevices of time left over between Job Number One and Job Number Two. It's been wonderful.

In the process I've neglected to write much. Clearly this is a situation to be rectified....
