I need some serious help. Sydney has two paper deadlines bearing down on him, coinciding nicely with decent temperatures and a day full of sunshine. Sydney thinks it’s spring. Apparently “spring” means for him that books are distasteful and academia needs to be abandoned entirely to allow for time outside (gardening, bird-watching, walking, you name it). It’s like having a bear in the house! And you can just imagine how much I love being the wicked witch, reminding him (as gently as possible) that he really does need to do some school work. I myself have been craving a hike for the last six months, so I’m not the strongest of opponents. Sigh.
