Just finished the first research paper I've written in over twenty years!
And though my life sucks otherwise, as does the weather, I'm in a pretty good mood :)

2. I hate to say it,
but the evening ended with me crying my eyes out. However until that point of extreme inebriated sadness it wasn't too bad! I did some dancing and got hit on by two members of the band. Always good for my mutilated ego. Luckily my friend always knows when it's time to take me home! and so he did, before I made a complete buffoon of myself.

Thanks for asking. How was your weekend? I know you've been the source of much jealousy around here, a la "What kind of pie..." Laugh.

3. I'm sorry to hear that
about the crying part. The dancing sounds like fun.

I had a good weekend, except for all the rain we've had.

And the rest of that is all in good fun. :blush:

4. Ah, the crying was nothing!
We've had the same rain around here. Today is day four of gloom. Sun tomorrow though!

11. You know, it is!
Everything except the bibliography. There were no such things as "electronic sources" when I was writing my psych papers.

8. You'll have to be faster than that if you expect to graduate.
I mean, how many drafts did you have?

Were they all really necessary?

LoL

10. HaHA!
I've got a bachelor's in psychology and sociology. As you can imagine, it does nothing to help me in my search for employment. I'm therefore forced to take classes at a local "technical institute" hoping to improve my chances. Watch: $5000 pissed away, I'm betting.
