Confession Time

post #1 of 4
Thread Starter 
I don't ever want to write another personal essay as long as I live. I'm just not that into me.


And I have to write at least sixty more pages of personal essay(s).



I think I might have passed the deadline to file my intent to graduate. My husband is going to KILLLLLLLLLLL ME. It's so effing time for me to be done with this degree and dissertation.

All I want to do is hang out here on MDC and on Facebook. I actually spent several hours yesterday toggling between those two and ebay and my e-mail account. Time flies when you're procrastinating.


I did whip out seven pages once I got a call from dh that he was on his way home, though.


I'm going to get in bed here in a minute with dd and let her watch whatever the heck is on Nickelodeon while I TRY to write. . . . . .


Somebody come spank me (and not in the fun way ). I really, actually, do need some encouragement to just get it going, move on, graduate, and then get a life.

Thanks for reading . . . back to your regularly scheduled programming.

Ughhh Do you have to talk about me like that??? How do you know I don't do anything but hang out on MDC all day and totally neglect my classes??

"I'm just not that into me"-- oh boy do I know what you mean! What a pain those personal essays are.

Good luck.

Yeah. Except that I've made a career writing them. And I can't very well go reinvent the wheel with the dissertation. "Oh, hi, committee members, I know you were expecting a collection of memoir/personal essays, but, here. Have a collection of short stories instead!" Wish I could, but . . .
