Which means I can just SAY I'm a pagan but I never bother doing rituals or studying any kind of sacred texts or developing a relationship with deity, etc! I can go around and not be Christian, but I won't quite be anything else either because I just can't commit and I can't be ARSED to commit!"

Turkies can still bite you after you cut off their heads, fyi.

That's fucked.

No, for real.  That shit is WRONG.  Even zombies die when you whack their heads off.

Turkeys are winged ratfuck horrors.  Mean bastards, they can beat your ass with a flap of their wings.  Seriously, they can break your arm.

Standard turkey hunt procedure is to hide behind a tree and HOPE the turkey walks in front of you.  When it does, blow it's damn head off.  Your now-headless thanksgiving dinner will bolt.  Go catch it.

Turkey was pretty chill. The kitten on the street was all HOILY FUCK ISSA DINOSOAR! but turkey didn't give a fuck.

So unbelievably tired. Oh my god.

Chemistry, it turns out, is my easy class this term.

Thinking seriously about changing my major to biology, not because I don't love psychology, it's still my favorite subject, but to be more competitive on my grad school application. And then I have thoughts like maybe I should just take an extra year and double major, but that's a whole extra year. I wouldn't start grad school until fall 2016. Although, really, I'm not sure it matters, I'm going to be 50 by the time I graduate anyway.

Or, I could continue the track I'm on, apply to the NGP, and if I'm not accepted for 2015 I can change to the double major in psych and bio and reapply for 2016.

Meh.

I want to go back to school.  I miss Chemistry. My brain is rotting at this job. 

I can't even calculus anymore and I want to verb everything.

:lulz:

I do like school. Except for the quarterly game of "can I head off foreclosure?" and being poor as fuck all the time.

But if I can make it through, I get to be a researcher for the rest of my life, and that honestly sounds AWESOME.

Picked up some sort of cold/flu thing. Still gone to work. Woe betide any fool who calls in sick today. I'm 400 miles from home and sick and STILL HERE.

I had 142 unread emails this morning.

Nobody should have to put up with that.  Almost all of them are cc'd.  So I erased everything.  If it's important, they'll call.

That sounds like my email account.

I get, on average, about 90 "conversations" in Outlook on a week day, so probably closer to 150 emails, back and forth.  Over half have nothing to do with me.  I always love getting emails about how "there is cake for all the staff in the common room" for example.  Yeah, because that's only a two mile walk for me.  I really needed that information.  And please tell me more about the company Tumblr!  I'd troll the damn thing, if anyone actually ever read it.

What? No way!  You just get well camouflaged and stay very still since they see very well, and use a box call to make the  scratchy 'rrrrrraaah rah rah rah rah' sound that the hen makes.  You do that every couple minutes, and if there's any toms in the area then you will hear a 'gobblegobblegobble' from some distance away in the trees.  You call back and forth, and the gobbles get closer and closer until you see him emerge strutting with his chest all puffed out, and his feathers spread in anticipation of sweet turkey lovin', and BLAM! His 'mort' isn't as 'petite' as he was expecting, and you've got one more beard for your collection that disgusts your wife.

Turkey hunting is fun.

What do you do for a living again?  I always kinda assumed you worked in oil, up on a rig in the North Sea or something.

Trolling tumblr is the best. There are so many vegans to fuck with.

And they basically troll themselves.


SO TIRED. Hardly slept last night.

I told one to STFU on facebook the other day, and I'd BE vegan if we had decent food options around here. They're essentially evangelicals.

That reminds me, I should probably check  my email.

A month or so ago, it broke so that I can't reply to anything I get. I kind of like it that way.

This sounds like a good thing? But I can't really understand it so I'm not sure.
