Starting anew

I have an open blog which keeps my family and friends in sync with my hectic life. However, I can't talk about anyone, bitch about my advisor, or generally rant about life. I need this outlet or I will explode. I must cover my tracks. Opened secret email & secret blog. Do I dare even tell my husband? Hmmm...nope!

About me? Started my dissertation officially last week. How far have I come? I'm reading Surviving Your Dissertation. Impressive, I know. I've got kids, husband, cats. That's about all you'll get from me, at least for now.

I've had so much to say over the last two years, but I just can't rehash...must move on. Quick brief: had cheating office mates & I took their butts to honor court; my advisor thinks I'm copying her research agenda (ah, who actually showed her the stuff last year??); and my husband's company has been dickin' him around. That covers the basics. See, you're all caught up.

Did I tell you the one about a professor I have who asked me to talk about blogs in a class and then she spent my time talking over me? Good times. I say RANT away!

wow...that must have sucked. I know someone like that, too. Was the class about xyz or about her new research project, which, uh, by the way, she hasn't told her students yet! Oh, yeah...it's pending IRB!

She told her summer class about the IRB project. She hasn't mentioned it to the other classes that I'm in yet.
