Will someone please explain to me...

...how I can still be insanely busy even though the semester is done?
...why my two "it always works" experiments aren't working?
...how one appeases the E. coli so they'll behave again?
...why faculty can't follow directions? I got another set of receipts with a hard copy of a report, instead of an electronic report and the receipts going to the business office...
...why there is only one more week before my eldest child is out of school for the summer? There are no daycamps in town this summer, so I think we'll be piecemealing something together...
