It's been a long day, between teaching and attending to committee work, giving a colloquium talk, dealing with an emergency drill, and coming home to make a later-than-planned dinner for the kids (since my better half had to help a sprog with an arithmetic emergency during the anticipated dinner hour).

Tomorrow is a day off from school ... but for the sprogs, too, and me with piles of papers that must be graded and returned by Thursday.

What I need right now is to see Stephen Colbert dance:

The magic commences at about the 4 min 30 second mark.

I had the honor of seeing that portrait hanging in the Smithsonian American History Museum.
