Greetings, internet. My thesis has been submitted! At 10:45pm on Friday, I finally emailed a massive document to my committee, only a day and some hours later than I intended. Ah, well. It got there before the weekend, which was the really important part. The preceding several days were, well … hellish. Some of that probably came through on this blog, but not much, because I severely restricted my internet use during the final run-up to it all.
In an effort to channel the silly thoughts that often prompt me to post on here, I decided to keep a running list of things I was thinking about on paper, so as to minimize the time required to record them and prevent me from opening my browser. Because I find them to be an amusing study in sleep-deprived, stress-driven brain function, I post them here for your enjoyment (also as an explanation, if you called me last week and I repeatedly ignored you). I imagine it looks somewhat like a crazy person’s twitter feed, if a crazy person needed to write a graduate thesis under extreme duress. I translated and commented only where necessary, and the title was assigned during this whole project of sorts.
