fearthainn, when things in RL get tough, I have a tough time escaping its crushing load. I can't write, lose my creativity, and it's nearly impossible for me to relax until things are resolved to my satisfaction. Then I can let my hair back down and return to the land of banality until it happens again. I don't mind the whirlwind, so long as it dumps me back in Kansas when it's over.
( Update on A )
In other news, I have officially cemented my moron status here at work. Calculated a 20% fee on a $1 million project as $20K instead of $200K.

If you ever wondered why the GAO can't audit the government's expenditures, your question has been answered. Thank goodness someone pointed it out to me. Unfortunately, it was my boss (the nice one, but still).

So, with that gaffe behind me, I've decided to follow in the footsteps of many a physical anthropology major and go back to school for my BA in zoology. I only need 6 classes, so it's doable in a short amount of time with a minimum of disruption. I know it's not the most economically feasible, and I know that I should look into grad school instead, but the sad fact is that no employer pays attention to anything but a piece of paper when it comes to courses. I'd like to put that organic chemistry/biochemistry/calculus/microbiology/molecular genetics to use, since I did sweat bullets over them.
