Hello all. Well, It has been a few days since I spoke to you last, but my life has been insanely busy. I've had tons of work to do for my teaching assistant position in the last few days. I can't really complain too much, I only have to work a few times a semester, but it has been really rough. I spent all day Saturday afternoon grading 120 homeworks, and then all day today proctoring exams, and grading tests. BUGGIN!!! Oh well, I guess I have to earn my keep some way.
Its been tough to get anything done on the Research front, especially with my latest discouragement: a paper I had submitted for a conference proceedings got rejected : (. I'm not too torn up, but lately I've felt like I've been working really hard and not seeing any results.
Same goes for my work out efforts. I feel really sore, but no apparent change in the bod... am I not doing enough, or eating too much..... Probably the latter.
After proctoring all day and grading my exams, I went to see M&M (mom and michael) because I had not been by in a while (a while is more than a week in mom terms). Its always nice to visit with them. They are attempting to move to Houston if they can...right next door to Jeff andLori's new house.. I think the more practical perspective here is right next door to their only grandchild Kelly. Anyways, it was nice to see them and to harass Turbeaux and Spud a little bit.
Monica(my Ph.D parnter in crime) and I met up for some coffee around 9:00 before coming back to school. When I called she was sleeping and rushed out to meet me. When she showed up I told her
"Your shoes don't match"
she was wondering why I was being so particular about how her shoes looked with her outfit, when she realized the truth behind my statement... the shoes didn't match each other. She was completely befuddled with herself... aaah the life of a PhD.
Okay, back to work.
