Break Time

It's 12:40. I've been at the library since 8:30. I have been typing since 9:00. For those of you who care, especially Athena, it's a literature review on research done on debate effects. It's break time (potty, post, Pepsi).

I've been kind of worried that my full-bodied loathing of this past semester is a sign that a coming back for a PhD was maybe a big mistake. But today has reminded me of how much I love researching and writing. I wish I could stay here all day and night, but I have to leave at 3 for my stupid theory class.

So I will drudge through the courses, looking longingly forward to the research process. Duchess, let's get working on your idea next week! We can do this by email at first while we are both gone, right?

And yes, I realize "nerd" is the word you are thinking right now. I don't care.

I'm sure Mr. Meemoo is right there with you. Although, his getting up between 4 and 5 a.m. is wreaking havoc on other aspects of life. Keep your fingers crossed, the graduate committee meets this afternoon to review his 15 page thesis proposal (again!) What more could they possibly want from him? He's given them everything they've asked for. At least he thinks all his research is done because of this.

Find out what kind and how big of a nerd you really are. I dare say Mr. Eris will be quite competitive.
