Only in a perfect world...

Happy Valentine's Day!

How we celebrate at our household:  C plays World of Warcraft and me?  Well, I'm working on my thesis.  Right?  Right after this post.  I need to take a look at the thesis guidelines & formatting requirements.  Probably should've done that first thing, but whatever--I like a challenge.


I spent part of last Saturday at the library working on my Methods section.  Actually got a fair amount completed.  I had to because: 1. I have a meeting with my advisor tomorrow and 2. I'm to submit a "final" draft of my thesis to my advisor by March 7th if I want to graduate this semester.

As I sat there in the library checking Facebook for the umpteenth time sitting open in a window right next to my draft, I realized I needed to nix that distraction.  So guess what?  I deactivated my account.  YESIREEBOB I surely did!  I may reactivate once this whole thesis thing is over unless I find I like my life better without it.  So far I haven't missed anything except posting status updates and checking others' statuses and pictures when really bored.  That came out wrong.  Correction:  I miss having something to mess with on my phone when I'm bored.

End Post.

I'm turning into a geek

First my husband gets me into Battlestar Galactica then he gets me to work my Hunter up to Level 40 in World of Warcraft.

He had no idea what a catch he was marrying.

No Facebook for a while

Because C & I skipped out on the parties to sit at home and be miserable with colds.  It's gone to my ears so hopefully I can come through without having to go to the doctor because of an ear infection.  I imagine they're interrelated (colds & ear infections) but I really have no idea.

In case you're wondering, I'm staying off Facebook because of the inevitable Super Bowl comments.  It's like rubbing salt into a wound.

It wasn't all bad though.  We got through a bunch of Battlestar Galactica episodes.  I've officially become a fan.  Starbuck just "died"--I put it in quotes because I don't believe it--we have yet to see who the Final Five are, and I'm about to go crazy with the suspense. 

P.S.  I wish my dogs were cylons so they could live forever.
