Why Are We So Busy?

I'm not complaining about today so much, which was a lovely day. But stillyet, I am complaining because I feel so rushed. Today preparing for my last day at Conley School in Asbury, NJ tomorrow, getting out Issue # 71 of my Books for Readers Newsletter, doing some research for Takeshi and Chiaki's New York apartment hunt, plus a trip into New York for Edith Konecky's reading/celebration of her new book View to the North, plus hurrying back to make part of the presentation by Diane Hughes on Stereotype Anxiety and the Academic Achievement Gap. All fun, and one of my main feelings at this tired moment is, Yeah, but I didn't get any writing done.
