Here's some news

Friends,

I just handed in my last paper of college.

Ever.

Peace for now,
mittens.

It's been a while.

went to the gym

@ 6 am today.

boo yeah.

thesis

84 pages and counting :-(  So short, but it's in French, so that's good.

morose mittens meow.

and the push begins

4 miles.



UPDATE:  it's all lies!  6.5 miles. 

and, to bed!

but not before a nineties flashback.  My favourite song from when I was still in my single digits!

awwwwww

Friends,

the cutest old couple just walked by my table.  Both had hair of shocking white, and they were all old and wrinkly, and moved super slowly. But they were holding hands.  How adorable.

P.S. Albondigas and Fencer:  I wore my engagement ring today, but on the right hand lest anyone become confused... :-)

soccer

Friends,

I just played a pickup game of soccer for the first time in like 6 years.  It reminded me how much I like organized sports :-(  Maybe there's a volleyball league in London?



mittens

I feel like a dog.

Friends,

you know when dogs fixate on things?  They're all like "throw the ball, yes, throw the ball for me, I want to chase the ball, chase the ball, chase, chase sooo excitteddd for the balllll". 

That's the sort of impulse that I feel for every activity that isn't a thesis activity.  I'm sort of like "go on a walk! I want to walk outside! outside of the library! walkkkkk."

So, to conclude, after my coffee (coffee!  I want to drink my coffee!), I'm going to take myself for a walk.

I promise not to pee on any bushes along the way.

Attention span crisis for now,

mittens.

no way.

yes way.

Friends,

You're not going to believe what I did today.  I read a book not related either to my thesis (due in 6 days wassup) or my two final research papers.  Instead, I read the book of an author coming to give a talk tomorrow.  It's about the cult of sacral queenship in medieval france.

Talk about the mother of all procrastinatory events.

muah,
mittens.

hilarious

oh, XKCD.  you are my 1  +/-  1 true love :-)

thesis presentation

in 12 hours.

ruh roh.

If it is 20 minutes long, that means I can say it 5 times before grabbing a few hours of sleeperoo, and then 3 times tomorrow before class.

I'm so incredibly fucked.

-R

random impulse

All of the sudden, I *really* want to walk across ireland. 

back @ college!

Finally !!!!!

exhausted....but there's no place like home :-)

stuck in boston

because i missed the last bus by 15 minutes :-(

so yeah.  It's been a long, long day.  And the thesis presentation is on wednesday.  And I'm abysmally behind in EVERYTHING.

Don't expect to see a smile on this awesome (read: haggard and stressed) face of mine until....the 6th of June.

miserably yours,
mittens
