I am so with you on the marshmellow thing. I was standing around at a friend's bonfire Labor Day weekend, watching people roast marshmellows and I thought to myself, "Why is it I don't eat them again?" So I popped one of those size-of-Texas jumbo ones in my mouth. Yeah. That's why I don't eat them. They're terror-inducingly gross. Ick.

O! I would so be there for you if I wasn't like so way the hell on the other side of the continent (well, practically). But you know.... sometimes it's not so easy when you are NOT alone and you've got a butt load of stuff to do. Believe me, i know. because that person? Kinda expects that at least occasionally you'll give them the time of day, or the occassional pinch on the arse and actualy thinks that it's pretty much mandated that you will engage in conversation with them on a weekly basis or something. and believe me, it gets really annoying when you're right in the middle of something, when you're going full steam and the spousal unit is screeching something about blood sugar and dinner and such. (I'm diabetic so I hear the blood sugar thing frequently and the admonishments to eat something already have been flying around here nightly these days with me frantically trying to finish illustrating this book!!!) I'm so very grateful that I'm not alone in this, but sometimes, I gotta say... i sorta wish I was. but just a little bit.

Amen, sister! Dissertations are all kinds of difficult. I can't imagine writing a dissertation in the sciences and I suspect there are ways in which a humanities diss is easier to do, but we in the humanities are always anxious that we're not being scientific enough. There are few methods to fall back on. And it's really, REALLY hard to tell when you're done. So, you are right. I think they are all hard. As for having family to take care of you, it is a nice thing. But the downside is that you also have to take care of them. So while I may be keeping my sanity and perspective about the world, I also don't have the luxury of forgetting about the world and writing for six hours. Everything I do has to be done in two hour chunks because the husband and kid need me too. I keep thinking that if I were alone, I could finish this thing in a couple of weeks. I suppose the grass is always greener.

I was just reading your last god-less post. You Heathen! Hmmm... I'm much of the same mind frame. I'm interested in the idea of religion (although not necessarily religion itself) and I'm not entirely an atheist... but close enough. I have ideas about what God is to me... ideas about how everything is made up of all the same basic elements and how that connects us and how that connection is my version of God... but they are kinda nebulous and hard to follow. But for all my god-lessness and confusion, I pray. I may not believe in any sort of traditonal God or intelliegent design, but I do believe in prayer. It's an odd dynamic and maybe there's a part of me that's just covering the bases, but there it is. My husband is a confirmed atheist (also being a scientist w/a degree in Physics and Mathematics... then pursued televison. Go figure.) but he has been studying Buddhism for the last three years. He views it more as a philosophy than a religion. I'm becoming increasingly interested myself. Buddhist prayers are so beautiful.

wow, Breanna. Should you decide to forgo the PHD and the second floor elevator, you definitely have a career as a writer. That last entry was really moving. And makes me realize how incredibly fortunate i have been. And sadly, it's completely true that poor people give more. I remember hearing just after she broke up with Be Affleck and was in dire need of some decent PR, that J-Lo, her royal skankiness, decided that maybe it was time to give to charity. For the FIRST TIME!!! Unreal. I hope, should I ever win a lottery, that I will stick to my personal pledge to give a great deal of my winnings to charity. I mean, I'm no lottery winner now, but my husband and I donate every month to the United Way and Unicef, and regularly vow to give more when we can.

I'm not friends with any of the boyz I dated in the Stone Age either. Except the one I married, but of course. And he truly is my best friend, bar none. Your boy is still out there. He is! I guarantee it. You're too special, too warm and wonderful and funny and cake-covered to go boy-less indefinitely. You'll know him by the animal embroidered on his pants. Or better yet, maybe he'll have some kind of exotic soil specimen microbe thingie emblazoned on his thigh or back pocket (um... you're the scientist, not me! obviously.) However... I'd stay away from Dragon embroidered trousers. And guys who refer to their pants as trousers.

He's more of a hydrologist/agronomist, since he focuses on the water side of things, although it doesn't sound that easy to separate. He's not an academic, though (smart boy). He works for a company that does a lot of US-AID work in the Middle East.

I'm even later putting my 2 cents in, and I have never done so before, but when inspiration hits, you need to do what it says. Only you can tell if its time for a break. Go with your instincts every time when it comes to writing your dissertation. Goodness knows its hard enough without ruining your flow when it happens. Breaks are good as well, though. The only one who can tell when its time for which is you. Good luck, either way. Sparrow. xx.
|

I am way, way past time to be adding my two cents, but I think you should have gone out. Maybe you will/would have a great burst of inspiration while you were out. If you take your mind off your problems, a solution or idea will usually pop into your head. About leaving your computer, do you have a jump drive? That little innocent looking stick will hold a lot of memory. You can save your whole dissertation. Look in the sales papers that come on Sundays and there's always crazy good deals on them. They even come in pretty colors now.

Holy everloving crap. If I saw that on the floor in my house, I would probably just have to move. I'd leave it there and be like, "Well, I was getting tired of this neighborhood anyway. Come on, kids, let's go." Seriously. Ick. A zillion years ago when I worked at Trak Auto I was standing behind the parts counter when a squirrel ran into the store and started running towards me. I was up on top of that parts counter shrieking and pointing in about .0000001 second. Then it hid under a display of antifreeze and I had to shoo it out with a broom. Damn squirrel.

First of all Breana, take a deep, slow breath. Now let it out. Everything will be okay. In four months you will have achieved what you've wanted for a very long time. And let me tell you what, you rock the world for doing so. So okay, it may take a few months even to find the job you really, really want, but trust me you will find it. Give yourself time. Take a vacation in between. Take a breather. The world won't end if you do. And don't be afraid to get married, if in the end you decided that's really what you want. It's not a bad thing. People do change their minds, even after years of thinking in a certain way. Maybe you don't have to break up with Dre?
You don't have to panic. Everything will be okay.

I just realized you had more written about your bank troubles. I totally know how it feels. My family is pretty much perpetually broke, being paid only at the beginning of the month. Near the end we usually try not to eat. I wish I had a lot of money, I would sent it to you and not want a penny back. If you have video & Dvd stores near you, you can sell your tapes to them for a pretty good amount of money. If you have any extra clothing you don't want, you could try consignment shops. The money isn't immediate but it does help in the coming weeks. I'm really hoping everything goes okay for you through the rest of this month. If you need anything, please do write and I'll see if I can help. Besides, my shoulder is always free if you want to get rid of some of your troubles.

Things I did for money when I was a graduate assistant: sold plasma (I know!), took my clothes to one of those obnoxious, teeny bopper Plato's Closet places (where they give you cash on the spot), sold CDs at a music shop, participated in focus groups, did a lot of cash-at-the-end-of-the-day temp work.

Ok. First, get to a food pantry. Times like these are what they are for. No one should have to choose between rent and food. Is there anything you can sell? Even a chair or a few CDs on Craigslist can get you some cash until payday. You work at a university, yes? Is there anyone in the psych department or other medical research departments that need research participants? That usually pays about $50 or so. Also, why not have a potluck with some friends? If you can scrape together $5, you can make a huge thing of rice and beans, and buy some cheap soda- your friends will bring the rest, and we always end up with tons of leftovers when we have potlucks.
It will be ok, Breana.

Left this message in my comments, but thought I'd stick it here too, just so i know you have seen it. "Ah, but Breana... I think I COULD grow peanuts here (not that I'm going to... more interested in growing posies). I live in Southern Ontario, not that far from Niagra Falls and the land in this region is very fertile. Our summers are very warm ( a little too warm if you ask me!) and humid (from the moisture off of Lake Ontario) and you would be surprised at what they grow here. There are lots of vineyards and they grow all sorts of fruit and stuff. The farmer's markets are burgeoning. Not as warm year-round as Georgia, and yes, we get our share of snow (again, lots to do with Lake effect) but Southern Ontario is warmer and more temperate than many, many parts of the US. In fact, our summers are not at all unlike Texas summers (my family lived in Texas for four years)

So, you get all flustered when this book store guy looks at you, but yet you can give me regular thrashings and tell me I act like a pretty little man girl? then you tell me how handsome I am, but then you tell me I'd be prettier with a butt. I'm so confused, so lost... is I is, or is I ain't yo baby?

OHMIGAWD! I would be FURIOUS! FURIOUS at the Bad guy who forced me to use profanity and my loaf tin to beat him off my bag! (ummm... something about that sentence doesn't scan right. it sounds kinda...er...sexual. And that's just not right) And.. what's a loaf tin? I do not know what a loaf tin is. However, I do know your horoscope for the day. It is: "For the first time in a while, you're speaking totally from your head, not your heart. It's not easy for you to be this rational, but you're doing a fine job. Don't let anyone talk you out of it."
If anyone tries, I recommend beating them with a loaf tin. Actually, and excuse me for saying this, what i really recommend in the spirit of rationality and safety and stuff is not getting in the way of any more bad guys. Just too freaking harrowing. Be safe!!! Be Well!!!

Yes, but I think that is the nature of memories... to gloss over the details. Then they become shiny little nuggets, like the rocks in a stream, instead of craggy boulders the way they would be.

You make me laugh really hard. And the pantiliner thing cracked my shit up too.

Okay, here's my suggestion. Give him a "1" (on a scale of one to five, or whatever your scale is) as a provisional rating if you think he's a non-starter for demographic reasons. This way he's in your Book of Business, but logic dictates that, due to his rating, you do not allow him to take priority over other prospects. You can always upgrade his rating in the future, should you deem that appropriate. But in the meantime, keep adding ot your Book of Business. And do as I say, not as I do.

I always win those little rubber finger puppets that have big eyes and they're aliens. Where by "always" we understand "when the game is the kind where you get a prize every single time even if you suck so bad you're inverted." I went to the fair the other night for a hallowe'en thing and the booth that is normally the duck-pond where you fish for rubber ducks and they have a prize written on the bottom (normally "give her a dumb 5 cent toy made in china!" but one day, ONE DAY I will find the duck that says "give her the giant stuffed toy that cost us maybe $1.50 from china! because she's spent $8000 playing this game!") ANYWAY the booth that is normally the duck pond was closed and had a smoke machine running inside, so it looked like there was fog on the duck-pond moors, which I found hilarious. The end, love yam.

Sweetie... calm down. DO NOT CHEAT. Not that I ever, ever think you would, but still... just don't. You're crazy scary smart and you know it. Your committee can't get anything over you. You're Breanna. You're the queen of that place. You know that stuff better than they do, Darlin'. Just calm down and study. You're gonna bust that place apart. I promise. And you know me when I promise.

It's the insurance company's own damn fault if they don't know about the state of gerogia! Okay I work at a place where I have to get people to fill out 8 or 9 huge forms on a regular basis and let me tell you EVERYONE sucks at forms. I use lots and lots of SIGN HERE stickers and fill in most of them myself so they don't have to and highlight everything else they need to do and attach sticky notes with arrows - and there's still usually one stupid mistake on every form. No one cares, they've seen it all before 50 times.

from Greschya's guestbook: "I am much more at ease in the city than in the country. In the country, no one can hear you scream. In the city, no one cares, but at least someone HEARD it." You have voiced exactly why I live where I do. I LIKE knowing that there are people everywhere. I LOVE living in an apartment building surrounded by lots of other lives, but without actually knowing them. I love looking at buildings around me at night, seeing glimpses of lives being lived through the windows. Cities rock.
