yesterday....

had a strenuous session for an hour with one of my students. Afterwards, wanted some "excitement" but fatigue set in and I simply returned home---it was also very cold, which made moving around the city not an inducement. So I embraced, or perhaps "struggled" with "aloneness" possibly the fatigue was still a carryover from the enormous input from the day before. Can't really say. Always happy when the day arrives.
  Today a late session---again, I will be faced with the choice of the next few hours. The last three days, I have remained at home---for the first two I really had no choice, having subbed and had sessions, and then there was yesterday. At this writing I am not feeling very tired, so I hope after the session that ends around 6, i can do "something".
  Tomorrow a full day at Friends, and maybe longer, as I have just received an e mail that might lead to my staying at the school until 7:30---we shall see.
 Yesterday I began reading a play by Ibsen that I had not read previously, called Pillars of Society. Pretty interesting; the usual Ibsen themes---conformity versus "adventure" in a staid town are present, but as usual Ibsen brings the whole thing off. Just have read Act I, maybe the rest today.
  That is all for now. Next post probably Saturday, and you will know all.
