S.A.D.?
With the days getting shorter, and the darkness lasting longer, my mood sinks. I'm going through one of those blah phases that starts in October and lasts until April. I think it's called Seasonal Affective Disorder.
I'm behind in grading, too. Like two weeks behind. Students keep asking me when I'll give back their papers and tests and I feel guilty that I haven't returned them, stressed out that I still have to grade them, and angry that I have 130 students' papers, tests, quizzes, and homework to grade.
I just want to crawl into a hole and never come out.

Breathe...it is almost Christmas! I feel your pain!
We should talk about helping you with the grading thing. I taught English 115 and 315 at BYU, my life was burdened with grading.
Now I've developed a new way, supported by YackPack (my startup company). You just read the papers and record comments for the students.
This won't work for quizzes, but for substantive comments (not editing nits) in papers it's very good -- and a time saver.
