Balancing act
Unpleasant:
--Snowstorm on the first of March. Rrgh.
--Doing weekend office hours in order to assist students for their Monday midterm.
Mitigating factors:
--Listening to Parliament in the coffee shop while waiting for students and reading.
--Mexican hot chocolate in the coffee shop.
--Having previously established the "hard line" of "I will not be available for midterm help after noon Sunday."
--Articulate, thoughtful, and funny students stopping by for advice.
Overall win!
