A Day in the Life

On Thursday I had a crazy day, the kind of day that epitomizes my life these days. I'm done with my master's degree now, but I'm taking a semester of courses for Ph.D. credit while working my development job. I'm also teaching. Sometimes that makes for a non-stop day. Thursday was particularly busy, and particularly diverse. I'd like to share with you my day:

1. Coffee and bagel at the library
2. Class #1 - My students are doing a project to improve awareness about relationship violence on campus for domestic violence awareness month. This day, we had a guest speaker from the local domestic violence shelter speak to the class.
3. Class #2 - Planning for a safety awareness fair at the Boys and Girls Club.
4. Walk to work + lunch
5. Meeting with an intern about an upcoming fundraising walk.
6. Meeting with the executive director about pending grants and events.
7. Trip to a local hotel to pick up a donation for charity auction.
8. Meeting at city hall (which I found out about two hours before)
9. Lecture at the unversity about "cellular citizenship," or rhetorics of driving safety and cell phones.
10. NCAA basketball watching + Easter Egg Coloring
11. At home, reading about the political context of the life of a French philosopher in the 1970s (and some Grey's Anatomy watching, of course).

Seriously. What kind of day is that? I'm ready for summer.
