Avoiding the Religion thread, lest I be tempted to engage.
Also, trying to find more ways to procrastinate. This 18-page student essay in front of me is very daunting. If I usually spend 1/2 an hour reading/responding tor 4-5 page student essays, how long is this one going to take? *Sigh.* On a happy note, this student is incredibly intelligent and a very good writer, to boot. Still. 18 pages.
