In summary: I need to get my act together.

I'm blessed with having a four day weekend. Monday is a May Day bank holiday, and Tuesday is some special teacher assessment thing, I think. So I go back on Wednesday, which is pretty cool. However, my brain can't really cope with this mini-school holiday.

I have two general levels of industriousness - school level, which is the type I have at any time other than school holidays; and school holiday level, which is the type I have during the school holidays. The latter is significantly lesser than the former, but there is little mental plasticity available when I encounter a situation that requires a level of industriousness halfway between school and school holiday.
I encounter an extended weekend, and the lazy side of me overrides the responsible, hard-working side. My brain officially switches to school holiday mode, which means that my mind is preparing for a period of rest much longer than the period allotted.

It is now the small hours of Tuesday morning, so I have just entered the final quarter of the weekend - but God help me! I'm stranded in the mindset of a school holiday-goer, and as a result I haven't got any work done!
I'm just going to have to find some other time to cross off all the things on my to-do list, because I have literally done nothing since last Friday.

So that's my confession. Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned, etc, etc.

Bye bye, now.
