Short Thoughts

It's been crazy lately. I've been working like a maniac and I've been busy with school. However, there's always time for a break to share some tidbits of my life.

Medical Marvel:
I'm a medical marvel. I got the results of my most recent adrenal test back. Even though I'm feeling better, my lab results are still off. Two areas of concern even got worse. Oh, well. At least I can get out of bed and function in society. Here's hoping that my December results end up being better.

Appliance Rebellion:
My apartment came without a dishwasher. When I was apartment hunting, I honestly didn't even notice the lack of a dishwasher. It's probably because I was in such a hurry to get out of the bad situation I was in that I was more concerned with just having a place to live. Well, the lack of a dishwasher started to get on my nerves, and I found a portable one on craigslist that hooks up to the kitchen sink. Earlier this week, it broke. Now I have to handwash my dishes again. Sigh.

Awkward Analogy of the Day:
I'm working with one of my professors on my supervised analytical writing requirement (i.e. thesis). I went to his office to talk to him about my progress, and I told him that I had put off coming because I didn't have as much work done as I would have liked. He told me that I should feel free to come when I'm stuck so that I can talk it out. Then he said that I would basically be giving birth to this article and that he was acting as the midwife. I really would have preferred something other than a childbirth analogy. But, there you have it. I think given the amount of stuff I have to say on my topic, it might end up being twins...
