Free Fallin'

So, I was talking to one of the doctoral candidates in our lab the other day, when I realized all of the sudden that the application deadline for grad school was the first of March! Oops. Well, I couldn't have applied anyway, since I needed this quarter's grades to even be considered.

It's sort of a relief to know that I need to be looking for a job now; the waiting and uncertainty was really starting to eat at me. I could be upset too, I suppose, that my roommates announced today that they'd rather live somewhere else next year (and had in fact found a place while I was gone this weekend) but all these factors together really make me about the freest I've ever been in my whole life. I've got no girlfriend, no established job, no school to return to in August, and no roommates for the fall. Now would be the time, if ever, to do something extreme, interesting or exciting.

Now, if I just knew what I wanted to do with all this unrestricted opportunity...

Thanks Matt! I appreciate that :-)

I think you're right, most likely I'll end up slavin' away for Saturdays, but it is fun to think about what I COULD be doing instead...
