A Day In The Life Of A Board Member

It's all meetings and editing, these days. I read and read and edit and edit and read some more, and when I'm not doing that I go to meetings, and when I'm not doing that I try to read for class.

Today, for instance:

5:30 am. Roll out of bed and head to the gym with two Comments. Read them while on the torture device exercise machine.
7:15 am. Get to school. Don't even bother to open up laptop, but pull out the bankruptcy reading and try to get through it in the next hour. More or less succeed.
8:30 am. Go to class. Take notes like crazy.
9:30 am. Back to the library, buckle down and read for the next class.
10:30 am. Finish reading and start working on an edit.
11:45 am. Stop editing and start preparing for meeting.
12:15 pm. Meeting with lots and lots of headache-inducing discussion and no food.
1:29 pm. Dash to the cafe to grab some sort of pseudo-nourishment.
1:30 pm. Class. Take notes as much as possible while distracted by new edit that just came in.
2:30 pm. Work on edit.
5:00 pm. Finish edit and send it off, think about posting, do assorted email chores.
5:30 pm. Meet with fellow board member and discuss developments.
6:10 pm. Come back and finish post before doing reading for tomorrow, reading 4 Comments, and working on the next editing job.

Whee. Sometime in there I should probably eat, but I'm not clear on when it will be.

Comments

If you keep skipping meals, your MOTHER is going to have some tart Comments for you, and no editing allowed!

Looking at your schedule makes me feel like I'm relaxing! Don't keel over in your classes or meetings.
