i scheduled a room for my master's project defense. that means i have a date (april 29), and a room... and all of my advisors confirmed they could and would be there!
i'm far from done, but this is just the incentive i need to do it! -------------------- |

I have taken myself off of almost all of my meds, excluding nexium, which I am trying to wean myself away from now. No more prozac or sleeping pills - it's amazing the stress I was under in the corporate world. Who knew being unemployed would be so healthy for me!
You guys ROCK! -------------------- gabba gabba hey!

I got a new bike today, for only 573 dollars! (My old frame broke and was covered under warrantee, so I paid that for everything that goes on the frame and the labor to put it on. It is a brand new bike except for the pedals, the bottle cages, the speedometer, and the seat.) Ok, so I am in debt now, but at least I will be riding again, and hopefully that will wean me off my medication before the end of the year. I would rather pay 600 bucks to the shop for a bike than 600 bucks to the brainshrinker and her assistants for some artificial peace of mind. |

i didn't tell my boss to **** off today, no matter how much i wanted to!! (though i'm sure his leaving early had something to do with that ... ) and i finished copying the stripper charts, and labeling them, and copying them again ... it only took me a month ...
 and i thought i had only broken the dryer minorly over the weekend, but it turns out i've busted it real good ...

I have FINALLY managed to book an appointment with the screening clinic. This has been a tremendous ordeal. I only finally got in now after flipping from tired-but-composed student mode to screaming-hysterical-and-desperate mental banshee mode when the nurse tried to put me off again... but hey. Whatever works, right? (Must work on dealing constructively with disappointment. Must learn control....)

You know, I was trying to write a 50,000 word novel in February. I missed the 50,000 mark by a longshot, but when I looked at what I'd written and peeled away that parts I didn't love, I found nearly 8,000 words that are good. I'm going to be proud of that for now. And hopefully I will watch it grow to be a bigger story.

After 6 months of paperwork, worrying, fedex, emails, chat sessions, and
phone calls - the fiancee visa was delivered to Elly yesterday in Manila. I will fly there in May and meet her family, then bring her home. We met online in Jan 2004 and in person May 2004, and 1 year later she'll be here!! Hard to believe its been a year already. elly_lagoon in Manila, hometown boy dave in Cincinnati -------------------- www.daverohman.com
