First, today is "happy liberation day." Two years ago today Susan fired me and it was the best day of my life.* It's hard to describe what it's like to live through years of depression. I'm grateful that I have any friends left after completely shutting down from 2005 to 2008!
Second, today - March 3, 2010 - has been an incredibly productive day. I've accomplished more today than I do most weeks... Probably more than I did during the entire summer school of 2009 when I'd teach in the morning and fall asleep drooling on my couch each afternoon.
It was a great day teaching, learned how to give tests on blackboard (meaning I don't have to do grading because the computer will do it for me), and spent 3 hours preparing for tomorrow night's wine tasting.
* I initially wrote "arguably the best day of my life" and then thought... "Really, what day tops it?" Nothing came to mind so I removed "arguably."
