It started on Friday when I checked my school e-mail...the antsy frustration that is all too familiar during the school year due to an insurmountable to-do list and not enough time in which to accomplish much. School is coming. School is coming! I've already spent a significant amount of time brainstorming and mentally forming a classroom layout. I'm already worried about how I can have 1st quarter grades and everything done before I leave for Disneyland (in October). I'm behind, and the race hasn't even started yet!!
On a completely different note, I read a women's health blog this morning (written by an average Jane Doe) that covered such topics as vaginal odor (apparently, it's a serious problem in the summertime, and here I was totally unaware...) and bra washing (somebody's survey found that on average, women wash their bras six times a year....but that's not what was interesting to me, though that is pretty riveting. What fascinated me is that whoever did the survey also figured that the average woman owns 15 bras. What? I'm singlehandedly bringing down the average. Must go purchase 5 or more bras pronto!). I just noticed that I'm using the word average an awful lot. But I can't think of a synonym in my beginning stages of panic and meltdown.
So to summarize, I'm not ready for school and have roughly two more weeks before I have to get into full-teacher mode, but I'm running behind a bus that hasn't even left yet; and I don't have enough bras. Wow, and I haven't even really thought about the fact that NAU classes start sometime in August...
I'm sorely tempted to return to bed and figure out a way to stay there for the next 14 days in order to store up enough energy to make up for the certain deficit I will experience too soon.

I have one bra that I wear everyday that I try to wash every week. I find two or three that I like and stick with those, so I don't understand the 15 bra average, lol.
