How is it almost Thanksgiving? Sweet Jesus, I have too much work to do before then for that to be possible.
I haven't been around a ton lately (aside from my dogged pursuit of the Drabblevember trophy, which, we'll see. I've almost reached the point where I dropped out last year, both on the calendar and in total) as a result of being massively swamped with work. I've started getting responses and making actual progress on a lot of my big semester-long projects, thank heavens, if I hadn't I think I might have melted into a puddle of stress. The proposed methodology for my GIS final project was approved by my professor, a relief, and she told me it sounded interesting, DOUBLE RELIEF, even if she was just saying it. I was really worried that it wasn't terribly creative or relevant - I'm going to look at the relationship between population shifts and public transit - in comparison to some of the other projects in class (for example, one of my friends is doing a project in support of a larger proposal he has to overhaul property taxes in blighted areas). As the semester gets more and more ridonk, I cannot describe how relieved I am that I dropped that class. Just thinking about having another thing to worry about stresses me out.
Ugh, just sitting here I remembered that I haven't slept for more than four hours in like a week. WAKE UP, SELF. Finish your rough draft! Only a month until vacation! Filibuster!
