So, at least I’m kicking it as far as getting cast as Frau Schmidt in the Sound of Music. I think it will be fun, plus I really need me some theatre!

so, i’ve gotten a good ways into it. But I’m tired and burnt out, and way to behind to actually get it done this month. The good news is, I don’t actually have to stop at the end of the month!
Sick but Surviving

So being ill with some head infection of goop and nastiness meant I’m actually getting “enough” sleep which is a good thing… it also meant I laughed out loud at the nurse practitioner when she told me to cut back on some things and relax. I told her I’m a grad student with six weeks left and my husband’s unemployed… there’s no where left to cut back. Add to that the stress of having my therapist seem pointless this afternoon and it just ends up being a sad sad story.
