Would you self-cite your own work?

I know I should be ecstatic about a 3-day weekend, but part of me is screaming "No! Another 3 days before I could potentially hear something back from admissions..."

Anyone else out there with close family members who do not emotionally support - in fact, even adamantly sneer at - your decision to pursue academics? If so, how do you cope? I used to be able to brush off the insults and negative comments, but having to be in close proximity with said family members for the holidays has really brought me down.

If she wanted to blast music all night then she could have at least put the speakers against a different wall!
