In the Water

Many days I wake up irritable and stressed about the amount of homework I have to do and the errands that remain undone (I need to get a MA license STAT. DMV, you are a hell hole). Unless I have to get to campus, I eat breakfast, do some homework, and then go for a swim. The YMCA is a bare-bones facility, that I wish was cleaned more regularly, but in the water everything is blue and clear. And when I get out, I am so much happier. So even if I don't get an 100 percent (not %!) on my copy editing homework, at least I swam half a mile today.
