The Halfway Point

I am halfway through a two-week-long period of massive insanity. Two weeks. That's nothin'. I've been telling myself this several times a day for the last week. And as I x my way through my To Do List From Hell, I've been feeling more and more confident of my ability to do even this, for only two weeks. I will stand triumphant over these weeks. They will be spent, strewn across a half-month of my past. I will conquer.

This next week was looking pretty good yesterday, because I was focused on a to-do list that included a paper and a thesis proposal. Huge friggin' things, but heck, they're only two things. I can do two things in a week. I was, of course, ignoring my stats exam. Because I wanted to ignore my stats exam. I'm not going to start on it until Wednesday, so I figured I need not worry about it until then. Best to focus on the paper and the proposal.

The paper is near done. First draft, check. Now comes the nail-biting period of review by my interviewee. God, I hope I got it right.

So that leaves thesis proposal. And oh yeah, the stats exam I'll be getting tomorrow. Gah! The fear comes. Sure, those are only two things, but they're two huge friggin' things!

Nonetheless, I shall conquer. I shall make proclamations that make me sound like a violent emperor even though I'm a pacifist socialist. I shall... whatever, take the rest of the night off. I'm beat.

So, seen any good movies lately?
