Totally disenchanted with studying for the mid-term I’m taking tomorrow morning at 9am, I guiltily logged in here, averting my eyes so I wouldn’t see the date from my last post glaring up at me. And then I proceeded to start two really kick-ass posts, two really very, very different posts. And each time, when I got to the end of the first sentence, I erased it, and started over. And now, number three.

I have totally psyched myself out, you guys. I start typing, and then I think about how my subordinating conjunctions aren’t right, or that I haven’t modified correctly. And then I start thinking, “Waitttt a minute…is it really necessary to use more than one exclamation point?” And…I mean…I can hear my professor’s corrections in the back of my mind and oh my god I really, really want him to shut it, I do, but he’s so damn loud.

There are things to tell you: new things, old things…grammatically incorrect and very informally written things. Good things. But there are also things to tell my Professor: Mid-terms. Essays. Conferences. Every single sentence formatted and edited and proofread to the freaking nth degree until I can’t even think straight.

I read a blog the other day where the author said something like almost everywhere he turns right now someone else is posting an apology for not updating as frequently as they used to, and he vows to never do that. It made me blush, because that’s all I ever do anymore, post to say I’m sorry for not posting, and it’s stupid and trite and I wish I didn’t HAVE to keep saying it over and over but holy crap there is just so much to DO right now!

I want to mention something: I hate taking classes. HATE. Bleh.

Anyhow, hey! I am alive and apparently doing things besides studying until I go insane, but you wouldn’t know that because I don’t have time to tell you about them right now. And, when I finally DO have the time to tell you, I’ll have forgotten what I wanted to say in the first place! Fabulous!

By the way, I have to point out the obvious: No, I will never really think that more than one exclamation point is too much, ever. EVER!!!

Tschuss!!
