Writing the days away

Sitting at the NRH library, a table in the back corner. There's a window and it's light outside. This literature cited, it never ends.



These past few days have been busy. Mostly, I've been working on finishing my paper. That proved to be the easy part, though. It's organizing over 100 sources into works cited that has me on the verge of a nervous breakdown. Today was the first day I went to the library to work on it, but only because I needed to look at a book. Monday and Tuesday I spent my afternoons at Barnes & Noble where I realized that people talk too much about their children, but no one else really cares. That's why they proceed to talk about their own children, who they care about, but no one else does. I'm really hoping to finish up tomorrow morning and get it sent to Chris for review (scrutiny) so I can finally start enjoying my time off. Next week will be less hectic.

I got my final grades for the semester and I'm pleased that I ended with the 4.0 I established last semester. Hard work, hard times. I'm tired.

I'm also tired because I've been getting up early every day this week to run before the sun (gets hot). I've cycled, too, but I think I've bruised a bone from an ill-adjusted seat. I'm looking into that tonight. And yes, I'm tired and I'm bruised, but I'm proud to say I've gone 4 nights now without a sleeping aid and natural slumber is creeping back into my life. Thank you little blue pill for getting me through the nights these past 3 months, but I don't need you anymore; I don't want you anymore.
