Today was like one of those fly dreamsNot that I have an AK. But Monday was a good day. So, even though I can't sleep, it's a content sort of insomnia, I suppose.
Didn't even see a berry flashing those high beams...
Today I didn't even have to use my a.k.
I got to say it was a good day.
I spent Monday in the library and was really productive. My chapter is all over the place, but I was able to slash and move and consolidate so I have a clearer idea of what I'm trying to do.
My nephew had a number of As and Bs in his progress folder. We agreed on a place for dinner without the kids killing each other (Sis is out of town). I cleaned the stove and the kids helped vacuum. And my son brought home this:
And... one day this week, elle, who likes to envision this blog as (at least partly :-) academic, will post about her dissertation, seeking your insight and wisdom. Shocking, I know. In the interim, read up on unionization and the South and black women and right to work laws and unions' exclusionary practices (yeah, right, huh?). I have this absolutely exciting thesis (not wholly original) about what unions failed to realize when they were ignoring low-wage industries with high proportions of workers from marginalized groups and what they're going to have to do to reach these workers.
I know. Contain your excitement.

PS I've never heard berry used like this before... I'm assuming it's a synonym for cops.
Sounds like a good day. Mine was non-productive. Elle - it's a BOY!!!!!!
Hey, we have to celebrate and relish every good day we have. They are often few and far between, I'm glad you had a good day. My day wasn't bad... I had to teach and read graduate admission apps... but it was all good...
test
Your post on your dissertation topic would be EXTREMELY welcome over at my place.
NP, thanks. I'll do that. who the h is testing on my blog anonymously?
I wish I would get certificates like your son does! Don't you think that would help? Something like, "Julie actually worked on her dissertation today. GREAT JOB!"
:)
lmao @ julie
I was wondering that too. do they call cops "berries" in LA? i wonder where it comes from. not like saying "the 5.0." or the "po po." is all that attractive either. but berry?
anyways, i am glad your day went well! and all the grad students should work out how to make those cards for each other. :)
