week after week

thank you for rescuing me from a rabid grizzly bear in my dream last night. that was almost a close call.

current status: conscious, at school

current workload: behavioral medicine I paper due tomorrow afternoon, lab work- at least 11 article reviews due tomorrow morning, research methods and design test thursday

extracurricular and admittedly mandatory: roller derby practice this evening for two hours, thursday evening for four hours, color guard practice on wedneday for one hour

what i would rather be doing: geeking out with a vegan cookbook, making ginger raisin bran muffins from vegan with a vengeance, sitting in warm sunlight, having my hair played with



but i like to be busy, so i guess its good, right?

hitchhikers guide...

do they make one of those for grad students? anyway. this is me attempting to not panic. it's past midnight and despite the fact that i am writing a paper for tomorrow i somehow feel like i have time to pause and reflect in this blog. interesting. well, what's really going on is i have been typing and organizing my thoughts for the past hour and a half and i just needed a break for a minute.
i have to get this paper done before tomorrow, make it through tomorrow's office hours with undergrad folks asking me about their upcoming test, discuss my personal research in a meeting with my major professor, enter a TON of data and run analyses, and write the results up before thursday. no big deal, right? riiiiight....



as for food- i dont have a photo because i assure you it was not pretty, but my dinner this evening was good! my mom used to make me this awesome squash casserole with tons of cheese and butter in it. once i went vegan i just had to do without. so tonight i thought i would at least try something like it. i sauteed squash and onions, made some "cheese" out of almond butter, tahini, miso, a bit of mustard, salt and garlic powder and added it to my veggies. then i put grape nuts on top cuz i am a little obsessed with grape nuts and i cannot explain it.
