Another Yearbook Rant.

I turned in my final paper about an hour ago, but now the real dread takes hold. No, I'm not talking about my final exam. I'm talking about the yearbook.

For the past month or so, I lay awake in bed dreading this yearbook. Will it get done (yes)? Will it be good (I hope so)? Or will I fail miserably (most likely)? As I finish up my schoolwork, there is little that can excuse me from getting it done...now. A few teensy-tiny problems:

1. The US Postal service lost about seven ROLLS of crucial film which included club pictures and academic departments...neither of which can be replaced.

2. We have to move out of our office within the next week. When I say "we", I actually mean "me" since the other staff members are taking off before the move. Did I mention that that includes moving furniture, boxes upon boxes full of old yearbooks, and four computers? Never mind the headache that is associated with moving our master computer at a time when its contents are so so valuable. I'm trying to back-up the materials, but I'm not exactly sure how. Anybody care to inform me?

3. We have turned in zero spreads. Out of 270. Two deadlines have come and gone. Kill me.

4. Much of my staff is avoiding me.

5. Someone at the dean's office is continuing to give out my name and number to parents calling about the yearbook. While it's okay now, I worry about what it will be like in a few months.

This list is stressing me out -- especially since there are a whole lot more to go. I'm going to stop now. Send me love.

Oh! But on another happier note: we're having a Sage B/C entry reunion BBQ tonight! Come back later for pictures!
