Detoxing the Craziness of Nothing

Wow, I guess I suck at keeping promises. I read some of my last blogs which I do occasionally to remind me that I really am not only crazy, but… well… ok I’m crazy. There is no other way to put it. But the point is I said I would stay a little more consistent with my blogs… guess I was wrong then wasn’t I! I do have reasoning behind why it is I have not though.

I am still going through a bit of “detox” from taking 24 credits in one semester. That is 8 classes, of which 4 of them were foreign languages… different ones at that. Chinese, Arabic, French and German. If you are asking yourself why… please refer to the comment about craziness in the above paragraph.

In addition to this, I also got a new job. No more crazy people at Lowes. I sometimes miss the stupidity, because now – I am the stupid person at work. I work for an extension of University of Pennsylvania’s Linguistics Department. Needless to say everyone I work with is WAY smarter than I am! But I really enjoy it. It forces me to
“smarten-up!”

Now I am counting down to my trip to China. It’s well overdue! It is funny once you have worked in jobs where you travel so much! Travel gets in your blood and when you haven’t traveled for a while, you almost become depressed. The excitement of the change in pace, the new sites, sounds, smell. I miss it! I truly truly miss it! And all this time on my hands, now that I am not studying, is really reminding me how stationary my life is now.

It is funny how when you have so many classes how you have no time to really think about anything but your next test. I now see why it is people go to school when they are young. Not saying I am old… just saying that at 33 – I don’t really recover from an all-nighter of studying as well as I used to!

I sadly don’t have much more to say other than hopefully I will have something interesting to write about in my next blog. Who wants to hear about school… BORING!!!! Other than my Social Problems class – that was filled with crack-monkeys, whores and ignunt assholes! (I have to cuss at least once in my blog, otherwise it wouldn’t be me) I look forward to more blogs – at more consistent intervals!
