So is EVERYONE stalled?

I sure am.  Sheesh.

I'm running out of excuses for not working.  I got my fancy new laptop, I've got demos of organization and bibliography programs, I've got more than enough books to read.  But, I like to think, I still have unpacking to do, I don't have my computer totally set up yet, and I still need to get the kids settled into a routine after all the traveling and moving.

So in the spirit of avoiding public embarrassment as motivation, here are my Shame contributions: 1) email advisor by 12:01am Tuesday (I skipped my December check in), and 2) start working Monday night, no excuses or movie watching.

My goals for next week: 
-choose a bibliography program and enter book information from the fall
-type up notes from one book
-start reading Sidney's Old Arcadia

What are you guys up to?

I've been having a terrible time getting going, but I started reading an article last week that got me totally jazzed. It confirmed SO many things that I have been thinking about Haywood, but it's didn't step on my topic. It also made me feel as if I knew more than I was giving myself credit for, so it has given me some encouragement to WRITE. Of course, this is all as I have to get ready to teach full time again . . .
