History Book Sale, Geography Lecture, and Geo Caching, Oh My!

Yesterday was a hectic day!  Actually this week has been hectic!

This week there has been "celebrations" because the Social and Behavioral Sciences Building turned 40!  So there was birthday cake on Tuesday, a Sesquicentennial speaker on Wednesday, with the culmination on Friday!

Let me explain about Friday.  I had volunteered to help setup and man the book sale for the History Department from 8:30 until 10:30, when I had to hurry to my history class.  After my class I had to hurry over the the Theater for the visiting Geography Lecturer at 11:30, I welcomed the crowd and then got the ball rolling for the Q&A portion after the lecture.  One good thing is that I was able to accompany the guest lecturer and several professors to lunch.  As soon as that was over I had to head back to the History Department book sale and help move it inside and organize the room from 14:30 until 15:45 for the open house that evening.  I had about 45 minutes to work on a history paper before I needed to be setting up for the Geo Caching Event hosted by the Geography Club at 16:30.  The Open House lasted from 17:00 until 19:00 which was then followed by a reception that ended at 20:30.  By the time I got home, I was ready for bed.  I didn't care that it was before 21:30, I was beat!

That was just Friday!  Earlier in the week I was busy, but not as busy as I was on Friday!  I'm glad the week is over, but now that means I have a test and a paper due on Monday and I should have two books finished by Thursday with two others finished by the next Tuesday... I have not even started on the books!
