Spent all day today and all day yesterday planning, organizing, drawing and in general putting together the slides for this Saturday's class.... 6-hours (minus breaks) worth of slides.  So far it's been about 26 hours of work, in two days.  Needless to say, my back and neck are a tad bit stiff at the moment.

But it's work that I really, really enjoy.  I enjoy the challenge of getting things that make sense in my head to make sense on paper.  I enjoy drawing the pictures that suddenly make the concept clear for everybody.  I enjoy doing the research.  I just enjoy all the aspects of getting ready for the class.

My hope is that I can get the blasted thing done tomorrow, so this time--for once-- I'm not staying up until 3am on the night before the presentation finishing it up.

We'll see how it works.
