I am only a few days from spring break.  I love my job, but I love writing.  Choosing between the two is difficult and most days I wish I could stop time, or at least slow it down for a bit.  Apparently, it isn’t as difficult as one might think:  http://grasshopperx.com/mind-games/how-to-stop-time/

I feel lately as if my energy has been frantic and scattered, jotting down a few lines on the bus or between conferencing with students or planning lessons for the next day.  I’m looking forward to a solid week without work distractions, when I can sit with one poem for an hour or two, read without interruption, and discuss results with a dear writer friend who will be visiting.
