Today was the most draining day of my life!

I woke up yesterday (Friday) at 5 a.m. and am writing this at 2:16 a.m. (Saturday). I just completed submitting grades for my second MMC course. After giving my final, yesterday,  I worked on my presentation and prepared for the interview today.  I think it went great.  I hope, anyway.  They didn't stop asking questions at my presentation which means either they were interested, or I didn't do a very thorough job.  I'm hoping it's the former.

Throughout the day I met with 15 faculty members. Some grilled me a little harder than others.  I met with four students for lunch. I think I could very easily teach here, if these students were an indication of the program participants.

I think I rocked my presentation and then ended with dinner with the department chair and a the senior lecturer in the area I hope to teach.

I came home and had to take a quick nap, as I was exhausted.  I woke up to a snippy e-mail telling me my grades (from the class I had given a final yesterday) were due -- not even 24 hours following the exam.  That is crazy and I wrote an e-mail stating that.  It would be different if I were full-time and that was my only job.  Hopefully in the fall instructing will be my ONLY Job.

I'll keep you posted.
