Thirteen Hours of Sleep and a Shower
I got up at 9 am on Friday. I have not slept that long since college, which was a rare occurrence then as well. I took care of Dillon from then onto 1 pm, got back to campus around 2, fielded another interview, and watched the clock until it hit 4 pm – the end of the project. I immediately walked - briskly - to the field house to take a shower – informing a number of people along the way what my intentions were. I am not sure what the best part was: the hot water, the shave or putting on clean clothes. It may have been the clothes. Putting on clean, crisp, clothes that actually have a shape and are not greasy and smelly was very nice (Catherine informed on Thursday that my office was starting to stink). I met some students for pizza at 5:30 pm and stepped back into my regular life. I did not eat a lot. I had a small salad, some Dr. Pepper and a couple of slices of pizza. I was not sure whether my system was ready for a much larger indulgence.

you should probably spray some "Oust" in your office after last week. Also, Dr. Greenlaw's kids were complaining about the smell in the Econ suite after you came through! ;)
