B: I don't know how I can possibly have everything ready to start teaching next week.
A: Maybe you should try reframing. What if instead of thinking of it as “fall course prep” you thought of it as “pumpkin spice syllabus time?”
B: … If this works I will never forgive you.

It’s not “fall semester,” it’s “cozy sweater learning time.”
