I have now been working for thirteen straight hours on my syllabus, prep and lesson plan for the writing workshop I'm teaching this coming term. (I did take a couple of brief breaks for meals and to spend a few minutes completing a sewing project; fashion-hacking a dress from a size 12 to a size 20. Maybe pics later.) Strange thing is, I'm enjoying the planning. ADHD meds; what a boon to this person's brain! Plus UCR uses a nifty online teaching tool which makes it easy to plug in the course materials and other information once I've created it. That's probably old hat to people who've been teaching like this forever, but for me, it's a brand new toy. I'm only stopping now because my body's demanding sleep.
