Friends,
I just handed in my last paper of college.
Ever.
Peace for now,

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?

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.

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.

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

shock of the century
Friends,
I usually travel on Air Canada, but today I'm traveling via American Airlines. I'm waiting for the plane to board @ Boston Logan. And SHOCK: the american airlines concourse is SO MUCH NICER than the air canada concourse. Who'd have thunk? Except for maybe all of you.

Yet another reason why scientists should have groupies.
They're awesome.

Good bye!
Friends,
I'm going on a plane tomorrow, and since I have an irrational fear of flying even though, rationally, I should be more afraid of the bus that I'm taking to get to the plane - though that's why they call it an 'irrational' fear - I wanted to take the opportunity to say that you're all awesome, wonderful people. I'm not being morbid (though if I die, that would be sort of weird), but I just want to have all my affairs in order. I love you all: my littles were a surprise and a half; my friends made my birthday as good as it could be under the circumstances; Paulson, you're wonderful; I'll blog when I get back from Michigan!
Feel free to email me while I'm away...I don't know what my schedule will be, but I know that I'll miss you all tremendously.
xoxoxo

happy birthday to me
I've been in the library so long that I thought I saw a pigeon committing suicide by jumping off the roof of the next-door building. Alas, pigeons have wings, as Adams thoughtfully reminded me when I shrieked and pointed to it.
