for the next few days

here's what the short version of my list looks like:

• grade papers for class #1 (approximately 25 20 12 6 left to go) (plus 5 late papers coming in today makes 11 to be graded by Thurs) HAPPY DANCE!!
  
• grade papers for class #2 (approximately 28 left to go)
  
• write quiz for #1
• write class outlines for #1
  
• write lecture for #2
• update powerpoints for #2
• write assignment for #2
  
• reading for #1 (approximately 5-6 hours total for the week, 2-3 for Tues)
  
• reading for #2 (approximately 3 hours)
  
• write first draft of funding application for proposed guest lecturer visit
  
• write first draft of paper proposal for upcoming conference
• read three articles related to my current research project
• actually write something towards my current research project
• plan upcoming week, report to writing group
• write two letters of recommendation for former students

All the teaching stuff has to be done by Tuesday. There's a little bit of wiggle room on the rest of the list, although the other stuff is actually more important.

And my personal list:

• yoga (goal: Sunday, Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday)
• rake yard, bag leaves
  
• homework for shrink appointment
  
• time with gf
• minimum weekly housecleaning chores
  
• cook real dinners at least 4 nights
• blogging!

UPDATE, Wed noon: there's definitely something satisfying about crossing these things off even on the next day. Obviously, I prepared my lectures for yesterday's classes -- but I still like crossing it off.
