Pulling Out My Hair!

Eeeek. This month just won't end. I've got two dumb proposals, a manuscript, a prospectus, three articles to review, two conferences - and then... finally a move to Home State. How much Miller Lite does it take to grease the wheels here and make things go? Have given up on taming how I eat this month, and rediscovered vegan cake.

And will somebody buy our dumbass house already?

Please...send...booze...fruity girly booze. And no, my shirt stays on. Unless you buy my DUMBASS house!

Good luck to you on the sale (and obtaining the fruity liquor... I prefer single malt scotch myself). We will make an offer and put our house on the market tomorrow morning. I feel at least a sliver of your pain.

You need something stronger than Miller Lite!


I'll send some happy real estate thoughts your way....

I would decline reviewing papers and going to conferences in favor of writing proposals and supervising students projects. Otherwise it's easy to go insane.
Good luck with your move!

I hear you about letting go. I've been working on a fellowship proposal over the weekend and at one point looked down and saw the space around my chair littered with beer bottles, a bag of doritos, and what looked to be half eaten turkey sandwich. I turned into a writing machine, albeit a disgusting one.
