Monday

Would you like some cheese with my whine?

One tear, then two – I’m frustrated ‘cause the ink on my “handwritten” final from the Spring of 2008 smears into a blob. While normally it wouldn’t matter on a paper that is 2 years old it matters this time because I’m studying this “blast from the past” as part of my comprehensive exams – they are one week from today and tomorrow – I am expected to regurgitate this information. Ahhhh, the irony in the fact that it makes me wanna puke! Why am I crying?

Blogging seems to be therapeutic – that’s why you find me here, a brief break from the books – my whine time – not to be confused with my WINE time – that H makes a huge difference ladies. Don’t believe me? Ask my husband!

I know that I have done this to myself – I remind myself of that all the time. It is my fault that I am tired, burnt-out, and overwhelmed – make no mistake, I have no regrets. By next Tuesday comps will be over with, by April the 22nd my thesis will be approved and published, and by 11am on May the 10th I will have a Master’s degree in my hand – that is the point when I can begin the search for my sanity – surely it hasn’t gone far.

Any Questions?
