Don't worry about the coronal mass ejection, despite the scary and slightly lewd name, it is apparently a weak sort of ejection. And when it arrives at earth on Thursday we won't even know it. Don't you hate it when that happens? Though, in the ejection's defense, it "could trigger polar geomagnetic storms."
Oh.
I think I'll just keep an ear open for the tornado sirens.
I'm still hanging out in my own personal never-never land. I finally got a rejection from one of the PhD programs I applied to. Thanks for the official email, guys, but I figured that out six weeks ago. I'm annoyed that they waited until late June to notify me, but at this point, I would have been more outraged if they had accepted me but not told me until 10 weeks before the start date. Am I spoiled because MFA programs almost always tell you your status by April 15, or am I right in thinking a June twenty-something notification is total bullshit?
Since I assumed rejection when they wouldn't even give me a status update six weeks ago, that really doesn't changes my plans or outlook. The never-never land feeling has to do with many things other than that.
Now that I've finished my MFA project/thesis, I'm in need of accomplishing a lot of goals without external deadlines. And really would like a paycheck one day.
Some days I think I should have stuck with my computer science major. I'm actually thinking of temping. Ick.
