When your advisor has to reform a panel so you can take your comps exams this week, since some of the folks are marooned on the East Coast, it makes you think.
1. Thank goodness I decided to go to PublicU, which, is not on the East Coast.
2. Thank goodness I thought ahead to buy plenty of beer right now, since I'm having one to calm my already frayed nerves.
What could fray one's nerves? Oh, showing up at work surely could especially when...
1. You still have mayhem with some others in your group who keep insisting on reliving it no matter what.
2. You get a phone call that a VIP delegation will be coming to Madison and you really have to show them what you do in the SU...and have a patient ready at 0900 for the VIP to talk to about your work.
So much for a relaxing, just get things done before I leave to go to comps Hell at PublicU.
Nothing a nice Kolsch can't solve at the moment...stay tuned.
