Here we are in the murky middle of the semester when all I can think about is a week off from teaching. Friday can’t come too soon, and then I have a week that is mine…A week to prep for ACS...Denver is coming fast. A week to catch up on grading and writing and gasp!... reading the piles of primary literature articles that I have stacked on my desk for when I have time. Time to put some of the good stuff that I’ve done this semester on VIPEr maybe? Time to plan for the summer workshop on Catalysis in Seattle? What are you catching up on during Spring Break… I hope there’s room for catching up on sleep in there.
