And the truckers now have an extra lane to run in, so they weren’t hounding me at all (they’ve been really bad on 70 recently).

Of course, from then on…I was just crazy busy really. I had classes, and thankfully, my students were all pretty upbeat and talkative. They seem to have recovered a bit over Thanksgiving, and since we have just about 2 weeks left (including finals), everyone can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

I was getting a bit tense by the end. And it didn’t help that almost every one of my people has to miss at least one of our few remaining rehearsals, which they all informed me about last night. YIKES! ![](\"http:\/\/www.xanga.com\/images\/stunned.gif\")
