Happily, it's actually no big deal to pass in class since the class isn't for a grade for any variety at all. It meets 4 days a week and is time consuming - they understand we can't all be ready all the time. It's just a point of pride to be prepared for it - but today I definitely won't be.

I want to do everything in my day - but I think I might limit the potluck to an hour of my time in order to give me enough time to do other things - like work more on the paper - in the evenings. I'm also just generally feeling better at the moment (although who knows how long it'll last) since I just finished a round of editing the paper and was thinking - really - it doesn't have to be ready until Saturday (which is when I'm giving it). It's just that I'll be at a friend's house for most of that time without the full range of usual resources - but I can bring many useful things with me on the trip. Anyways, my friend is going through exactly the same thing - she's giving a paper at the same conference on Friday, so it'll be an entire household of panicked editing and mutual content review.
