Overacheiving Assclown

Dear god, what on earth was I thinking when I decided to go back to school? The professors have told me I should not be having this conversation with myself (let alone talking to myself) for at least 4 weeks, but as the title says, I'm an overachieving assclown. One weekend in and I'm wondering in what alcohol-induced state I decided that it was a good idea to go back to what could conceivably be called one of the most academically competitive colleges in this state! I am in a class of 88 people, of which I believe I am the 87th stupidest person in the class...come on, the odds are in my favor that there is at least one person stupider than me in this graduating class.


So really, the question is why? As you can see, it's been week's since I've blogged. In fact, it was immediately after my speech disaster (I can't cook, remember) that I wrote last time. And now, 2 weeks, 1 doghouse (yes, that is my dog's new house in my backyard), and at least 15 articles later, I'm returning. I'm in big trouble. I've got 3 individual papers to write, one team assignment to complete, and our team charter all by 8am, 8/12. And oh yeah, this coming Sunday is my 30th birthday too so that means I'll be spending that day writing f'ing papers. Oh no wait, I get to go bowling on a group outing with my coworkers that Friday, yahoooooo!!! If you could see me spinning my eyes right now, you'd understand that there aren't enough middle fingers in the world to tell you how I feel about that.

On a high note, I lost one more pound on NS this week. 10 lb. bear, come on down!!!!! :-) Not bad considering I ate like a swine at campus again this weekend and had pizza last night. What was different was that I didn't drink, which I think helped. That, and the coffee which I'm sure is kicking my metabolism into hyperdrive. If it weren't for coffee, I don't think I'd be able to have the faith that I could make it through the next 22 months.

Cheers to all, I'll try and post as I have time, but no promises. Y'all have been so nice to come out and comment. Good to see some people out there that can understand my pain!!
