I wish I were happycat

Wow... I have been super depressed lately... especially today... but now that it's nighttime, I am not quite so stressed anymore and I am ready to get things done... like clean out the refrigerator (hahaha, this will be fun cause I've been putting it off for WAY too long...) and do more packing, and perhaps more wedding planning stuff...

now that it's time for me to be getting ready for bed instead of doing any of these things. 

Even working on schoolwork doesn't seem nearly so intimidating at this time of night.  I think I could actually do it!  What on earth is wrong with me?!!??!?!?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??!?!?!??!  I am SO frustrated.... I am frustrated enough to want to switch my schedule back to a more nocturnal schedule, just because I NEED to get work done so I can get to candidacy this fall!!!!  But I've already set my work schedule, and that means that at least on T,W,Th I need to get up "early" and be awake [enough to be at least semi-productive] during the day.

God, help me, because I don't have anything left within me to follow You.

extra short version

What??? I have a blog??? I've been so busy/stressed lately that I have nearly forgotten about it, much less had time to post in it!

Extra short version:
Trip to Wisconsin and party with the family: good
Going to the dentist 4 times in the last 2-3 weeks: bad
Starting to clean and pack for moving: busy
Schoolwork: almost nonexistent lately
Work: when it's not boring, it's busy.  when it's not busy, it's boring
Favorite companion visiting:
God: amazing and wonderful and beyond words (and emoticons), but all too seldom remembered
Milk: If I don't go to the store right now, I won't have any for tomorrow morning

LOLarticle

I really, really need to learn how to write article introductions like this...

The British poet Philip Larkin once famously quipped that sexual intercourse began in 1963, between the end of the Lady Chatterley ban and the arrival of the Beatles’ first LP. Just as remarkably, though perhaps less sensationally, semantic memory appears to have begun around the same time. The first documented use of the termis probably the title of Quillian’s (1966) Ph.D. thesis; it subsequently appeared as part of the title of the well-known article by Collins and Quillian (1969) and, even more famously, in Tulving’s (1972) chapter on the distinction between episodic and semantic memory.

Of course, even before the 1960s, everyone really knew that people had semantic memory (as well as sex), but it is perhaps not so surprising that semantic memory has only recently achieved independent status...

...now that would really help our papers to get accepted!!!!

sigh... for once, not of frustration!

I don't even know how to describe this feeling! 

It is incredibly good...

I am just amazed and surprised at how much fun tonight's party was.  I looked at my phone when we were about to leave... "oh my gosh, is it really almost 9???"  It certainly didn't feel like so long!

I can't remember the last time I laughed so much... it's been too long.

And when I got home, I realized that I was just... good.  It's harder to describe the absence of something than the presence of something, but the absence of the incredible stress and anger and loneliness of this past week and the past few weeks was just an amazing feeling. 

The party was a prom theme, and Chris C. and I won the "best dressed" awards!

And I have lots of pictures to upload... really need to do that soon.

The food was amazing and plentiful... we made punch again, I made ribs, and everyone brought and made so much other stuff... it turned out so well.  I was so glad that I thought at the last minute to bring the badminton set; it was a huge hit!  Pretty much everyone took a turn.  And oh, the conversations... lifted my spirits and for the first time in what feels like a long time, I let go and laughed out loud... many times.
