Is anyone else dog tired or is it just me? i need a week in bed (to sleep, that is!) i'm just sooooooooooooooooooooo tired I'm walking round like a zombie. Is it the cold, wet, windy, grey weather that's giving me S.A.D? I reckon I suffer from it badly. time for a quick nap uner the desk i think...

Well we just had thanksgiving holiday...which I suppose is intended to get a break from work/school/stress, whatever, sleep in, and get caught up....but I managed to wake up early every morning to either fish or surf, and ended up driving almost 1,000 miles in 5 days.

So tired last night...but I shouldn't be complaining :D

During which I don't get paid, unless I decide to work summer school. I also have about an hours drive each way to work. I usually end up putting in about 10-11 hours a day at school.

Thaya, I'm with you on the exhaustion front. We just had 5 days off (Wed-Sun) for Thanksgiving, I was better on monday, but the exhaustion is making a comeback, especially since I have to be at night class tonight.
