No, You're Not Crazy

I haven’t written in several days, and it’s because I am flirting with either tendinitis or some kind of repetitive-strain injury. Now I’ve had this trusty laptop for two years with absolutely no problem, but it turns out that I was doing very little composing at the keyboard until the advent of these here Chronicles. Having been down the repetitive-strain-injury road once before, I know that these things come on fast and then take a substantially longer time to heal. And, well, since the symptoms came on during my very first week of j-school, I was more than a bit stressed about what might happen once I had a steady stream of actual assignments on top of the daily blog entries, so I tried to rest my arm as much as I could.

Also, we had evening activities four nights in a row last week, so I was a bit short on time to write.

So I’m going to spend the weekend catching up, but I’m going to make the posts retroactive so that the dates at the top actually correspond to the goings-on described below. Which means that if anyone out there is actually reading this thing, you may need to scroll down and see if any back-dated entries have been added.

Gee, it’s kind of like having to check my online class schedule periodically to see if anything has changed. (Scroll down and read Retraction if you don’t know what I’m talking about.)

(1) Zach is a genius for setting up this blog, (2) I am having so much fun reading about this amazing experience you are having, (3) Newborn twins seems in hindsight more restful than what you are experiencing, (4) I admire you so much for your passion, commitment and energy and finally (5) hate to tell you this but I am going to sleep. 3 kids back to school may be nothing compared to J-school, but I nonetheless officially declare my wimpiness......zzzz
