      My break ends in 5 days. Writing out my to-do list for the semester, I've basically given up on doing any research between now and May.

    It's Super Duper Tuesday tomorrow. Microsoft will be downloading a ton of *bleep* onto my computer. So will Adobe. So will Oracle. Grrr.

      Good luck. Adobe drives me nuts sometimes. :(

    The department keeps sending me emails about a conference on another continent. Apparently, they believe grad students regularly win the lottery.

    Microsoft Tuesdays are annoying. At least it's not a super Tuesday. Argh.

    You know you're in grad school when someone says they have a hangover and you tell them you stayed up all night writing papers, too.

      Man I have like 3 months to get my first hangover or I won't get one 'til I'm like 30.

    Assignment: 8 to 10 pages. My word processor has 10 and I'm halfway through. :(

  15. danieleWrites

    Time to take books back to the library. I need some pack mules.

  16. danieleWrites

    So. It's 11pm. The article I'm teaching at 8:30? I forgot I haven't read it in a couple of months. Doh!

  17. danieleWrites

    A difference between the papers I grade and the papers I write: I have more sources in a paragraph than they have in the paper. *sigh*

      It is difficult to tell creativity to substantiate itself when all it wants to do is create.

    So instead of practicing my presentation, I'm in fierce contemplation of the Oxford comma. Go. Me. Yay.

      Death to the Oxford comma.

    No, my fellow American, I am not over-educated; you, sir, are undereducated.

    It's all about the Pentiums, baby. Uh, uh-huh, yeah.

    I cleaned my desk today. It's made me very sanctimonious and snotty.

  23. danieleWrites

    I want to complain, but 1) it's as useful as a finger in a sieve, and 2) I'll regret it in an hour.

      I complain, therefore I am.
