Mood: Drained

Lmao all my moods lately on here have been shit like "Exhausted" or "Drained" and, well, that's accurate. I am really feeling the hell part of grad school these days. It is seriously kicking my ass. I have less than two months to finish a kickass thesis in order to graduate on time. Fortunately my chair is really accommodating and chill and has been full of super helpful advice, so I'm able to take off running this week and get a lot done. I s2g I don't know why I picked this for myself. Probably because I'm not really good at anything else. I'm kind of like those celebrities on Futurama who have their head in a pickle jar. My body is total shit, I have the constitution of a housefly, but my brain works good enough to get me by.

Hopefully it's enough to get me by. I have a job interview next week for a research project that would basically be my dream. I'm not gonna get too into it, just know that I am seriously praying and it'd just be a great opportunity.

Besides dying of too much grad school and really hoping I get this research job, I've been also trying to focus on recovering from covid. Friday was the first day since I had covid that I actually did a real floor workout. I had to cut most of the sets in half and not go as hard as I was before covid, but I did it! Then on Monday I actually hit nearly 6,000 steps and pushed a refrigerator around my yard by myself, because it was broken--we replaced it with one that doesn't make milk turn to cheese a week before the sell by date--and the city wouldn't recycle it unless it was by the curb. It got stuck on some mud and I needed to push it out a little bit with my Jeep, but mostly I pushed it myself. I'm slowly but surely making progress.

Besides this, there just isn't much to report on my personal life. I just really hope I get this job. It'll make me seriously happy to be a part of this project, and I know I could make some legitimately valuable contributions. I don't want to get to into it but it's to do w autism research.
