Thanks-Tastic!, or, I’m Going Places, Fuckers, So Get Out The Way

Posted on November 26, 2003 by iasshole

After 7 years of family dooooty, I am giving myself this Thanksgiving off. Mr. Husband’s family got their acts together late this year, so I already said yes to another invite.

I am going to go over to my very delightful friend’s house and drink alarming quantities of raspberry-vodka punch. Then I am going to lay on her couch and talk to people I am not related to via marriage.

Tonight I am going to write my first draft of my CV, because I asked the first professor on my list to write me a recommendation for the PhDude program and he said “yes,” with no reservations…he just needs my CV.

Also, currently, the U’s Human Subjects Division likes me and my research application, so I may just get passed my Xmas. Best xmas present ever! I am going to frame that letter.

Booze+first drafts+Human Subjects love= Happy SJ

Happy Fangsgiving to you, too.

Yeah! Glad you escaped. I did not fully escape (went to resort kind of place with in law parents) but did better than I could have (entire Husband family, travel hundreds of miles, return exhausted) or than I will again.

Enjoy your freedom.

And cool! You’ll be a Ph.Dude. Right on. Dr. SJ.
