Exhaustion

 With ALL the work I have been doing with my students to prepare for this conference, I have difficulty explaining how UTTERLY tired I am.  It has been very much a condition of close to non-stop work and effort other than a late dinner in front of the tv with my wife before bed.  

I may be exaggerating a bit.... but IT HAS BEEN MUCH BUSIER than is my comfort zone.  

Last night, I ended up Zooming with some of the researchers until 2:00am.  

I was so tired this morning, I did not run.

I need rest and relaxation.

What you need, Professor, is a pipe. I hope you can somehow find your way back to your beloved pipes in a manner that doesn't bring you more fear and worry than relief. I hope your test-taking students today are quick to finish their exams and you can get away to the Retirees Cigar Group at a decent hour!

That is very late/early and it's hard to get to sleep (for me) after that. I hope the work calms down soon! You definitely need more rest and less work!

I am pretty tired too. Also a lack of sleep, but I am not doing anything, just waking ~4 after usually less than 5 hours. I am not having fun.
