Sad Shit Songs

Longpigs ~ On and On

Life hasn't been great. Just saddled with lots of uninspiring things to do and not much motivation. I'm just going through the motions. How I am going to graduate this year. I need to. I must. I hope the two weeks in Paris gig works out. I REALLY NEED TO GET AWAY. Either way, if R gets to go, it will be terrific too. I hope there is enough money for the two of us.

A paper that was sent out for review came back today with minor changes neeeded. I guess that goes straight into the to-do pile for now. Next week. I have to do the minimum for everything else that hasn't been done yet. Have to email genbank to sort out the id tags of some sequences I sent them, eeeugh.. sometimes I have so much work to do that when I think about it, my brain goes into toxic shock and I end up visiting the happy empty room in my brain and curl up in a corner, not wanting to come out.

On a related note. Seriously, I wonder how some students end up in our "world class university". There is no evidence of any thought process going on in some of the scripts I have been grading. In horrid english too. Like M and A, my brain melts reading them. I probably use less effort wading through glue. It's hard to go through 5 without wanting to hit my head against the nearest brickwall.

Stop lifting from the book people! If I have to read another introduction that quotes the "Department of Statistics", I might just lose it.

Why am I the Girl with the Thorn in her Side?

Because I am. How can you look into my eyes and still you don't believe me.
