Yesterday was a long day of class. I'd stayed up past 11:00 again working to get the last bits of homework done, and got up at 6:00 to finish it off. As of yesterday evening I was *finally* caught up with all my MIT homework. Hooray. I even got some sleep last night.

The challenge now, of course, is to get a jump on this week's homework now, so that I'm done early this time. Which I'm off to do now. More later. There is some indication that the ongoing substitute situation may be resolved during this week as well, which will help to some degree.

Meanwhile, D. got our pumpkin carved and out on the stoop last night. Here is an initial pic, and I may have a chance to post more later.
