Nothing catchy comes to mind.

I start each work week around 6 am. I fumble through BBC and CNN with a quick discouraging glance at NFL.com. I then take a shower and throw on a suit before driving my bike out into the cool of the morning (cool being anything below 90 degrees). I always get to work around 30 minutes early out of the habit that I have maintained my entire life which is that being on time is in fact being late. After devotions I have roughly two hours to prepare for my first class of the week. 2 hours to shed the cobwebs of morning, 2 hours to contemplate what I will do for the rest of the week, 2 hours to look at my grading pile and decide to do it later, 2 hours of thinking. Then its nonstop teaching and then coaching until I return to my apartment mid afternoon to decompress and to lie in dread of the following day.... my full day. Right now I'm sitting right in the middle of my 2 hour contemplation period, listening to the newest Radiohead album, dreaming of my Vietnamese holiday only 2 short weeks away.
