Two exciting things going on.
One: I've finished all the coursework for the Master's degree. Now, all I need is the all-important paper.
Two: I'm going to be hunkered down in THESIS BOOT CAMP in January. Basically you get locked in the English Department during three whole days with just a computer and a thesis advisor for company. Should be fun...NOT.
At least it will be productive.

How much information do you really want online? The lines are grey for me, but not entirely. I don't blog about my current job because that seems politically dangerous. I don't blog about my relationships because I don't think that everything about my life should be public.
Not everyone feels that way though, Matt at Hit-or-Miss blogged his one-night stand with mixed results. It's best to make sure that your conquest knows it's a one-night stand, or make sure that they don't blog.
Someone asked me what my ideal job would look like today.
I was just slogging through a particularly bad set of weeks, and someone hits me with such a basic but huge question. "What do ideal jobs look like?"
It's a tough question.
When you're actually in a job and someone asks you that question, the natural response for me is to go negative, something like "my ideal job wouldn't have me doing this and that" or "my ideal job wouldn't be for these types of managers." To put an ideal job only in terms of itself is quite hard.
What is my ideal job?
