On occasion, I wondered whether it was a good idea to return to school. Anyone who has let me blather for more than 30 seconds at them knows that I’m hanging in there, but barely. I’ve been very busy this quarter.
I don’t mind the work but I do mind never having any free time and [...]

I can’t get into details. If my mother had heard of the internet, I could’ve said: Momma said, never put anything on the interwebz you don’t want to be thrown up in your face later.

I watched a [...]
