pacing myself

Today I have no classes to teach due to a field trip.  These days are hard because I am not a person who usually gets bored, but on a day like today I often fear the afternoon.  To make matters more boring, this is my second day this week without classes.  My plans: finish all the lesson planning for next week, do my Korean homework, read a book, watch a movie on my computer, look at knitting patterns, read the NY Times book reviews, and look at pictures of haircuts.  The thing that always gets me about these days is that the work load is especially heavy the rest of the week because 5 days of teaching is pushed into 3, but there's nothing I can do about that today!
