Here I am at work on the first day of spring break. I have a stack of applications to read, next year’s class of library school students, plus I have an assignment handed in in one of my online classes – applying subject headings to a record (description of an information resource) that the students are building through seven exercises; and there’s always email. Besides being spring break, today is the first work day after spring ahead, so it feels like 12:58 – almost 1:00 p.m., even though the clock says 1:58 – almost 2:00 p.m.
And I just don’t feel that good. I tried 10 minutes of yoga rest – Savasana – prone yoga, on the rug I keep next to my stand-up computer terminal, though I supported my head and kept my knees up – and I think that helped.
It’s tempting to sit down and read the apps, but I think I’ll try to stay upright and grade a bit before collapsing into my chair. Of course, I’d rather be writing about food, but as Tim at Lottie + Doof just pointed out, food writing seems a little superficial at the moment. And they’re with us in Wisconsin, too –
