not an auspicious start to the new year

[cornerofmadness]

I'm having one of those episodes where I wake up more exhausted than when I went to sleep and stay that way all day. I tried hard to do work. I got my tenure package at least ordered but i have a ton more to do there in under 2 weeks and I got one more lecture ready but not enough, no where near enough. The parents don't quite grasp how long this takes me and by the time I get back on the computer at 9-10 pm I'm too burnt to think it through.

Got dragged to grandma's today. It snowed. I wanted gyros but it was closed for the holiday. Sigh. We had to take her her new glasses which were just fine but at 930 at night she calls Lucky Uncle to tell him she's in trouble, the glasses don't work (they're the right RX and they were fine when I was there. she read the paper with them rather than talk to me...)

I'm just now feeling almost a live. perfect.

I really may have to remove every single subplot from my fma big bang. This sucks. I could have used another month with my work load. head desk

And thank you for those inputting on my original fiction. if you're interested in being on that filter talk to me

I think tomorrow is the day where you say, "NO. No going anywhere. I need to do THIS work."

All they can do is scream at you.

Y'know, you'd probably get more done and feel better if you weren't on Grandma Patrol. Give her a miss for a while. She's a crazymaker.

Put me on the original filter if I'm not already there please...

AND UGH... my sister will CONSTANTLY go back to me having a CRAP cheap apartment when I ONLY lived 50 miles away from my grad school.

Dad's playing solitaire on the computer trumped ME doing papers...

Ah well, I'm over it... and she seems to compare living in NYC to living in Tiny small town with cheap rents.

I can't change that.

See if you can flee to a library or something??

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

I'm pretty sure you are. I'll check.

yeah I hear that. I can't get work done at home either.

I'm fleeing off home. Today is snowing tomorrow isn't and I have to be at work at 8 on friday so...

I wake up more exhausted than when I went to sleep ~ uuuugh I haaaate that.

I really may have to remove every single subplot from my fma big bang ~ D: aw, getting too big for the time left or just running out of time in general?

[cornerofmadness.livejournal.com]

doesn't it suck

BOTH. I should have two more chapters to wing your way though. the funeral and the holidays sidetracked me

I hope you find some way to get your work done. I know that your family doesn't make it easy.
