Learning my limits

While I was on the bus Friday, I read 4 articles (approx 100 pgs). Saturday, I read (okay, skimmed) 2.5 books (approx 600 pgs). Sunday I reread two essays from one of the books I skimmed on Saturday (40 pages) and then, well, spent the next two hours reading about 4 pages of a third article. I never managed to finish because words had lost all meaning and my eyes were crossing.

What I learned: My brain cannot hold any more than 700 pages worth of information in any given weekend.

I didn't get any actual writing done, but that's okay because my Monday night seminar is canceled today, so I can do it tonight (and tomorrow). There are few things in the world more joy-inducing than a last minute class cancellation. That's all I have to say about that.
