We fat kids still salivate at jelly, and won't accept dilution by tangential nerd speak.

Oh Jesus fucking christ, I am so sick of this bastard thesis. I can't believe how much work I have done. I can't believe how much is still to do.
It's just all too much. I've turned into a hermit - I don't talk to anybody (except Ma). I don't answer the phone in case it's debt collectors - I can't spare the time or mental energy to sort out payment plans or anything. (I haven't done a telesales shift for two and half weeks - so payday at the start of Jan will be about £40 lol ) none of that matters. All that matters is the thesis. I don't go anywhere, except walking the dog. I go to sleep with the thesis in my head, I get up with it still there. I make myself spend at least an hour in the evening just watching tv, and I usually read for half an hour before I sleep. That and the bits of time I spend posting here is the only time I am not thinking about the thesis. I want to cry when I think about how much work there still is to do over the next 2 weeks (xmas day excepted). And I want to shout at how close I am to the end. It currently stands at a little over 65k words and 149 pages. I've probably got another 10k words to add to bring it all together - and a fuckton of reference checking and formatting.

Break it into bite-sized chunks, daily allowances. Can you mix up the last bits of writing abd reviewing earlier sections? Excellent that you've planned in some R&R daily: don't lose that. Or Christmas day. You can do this. X

Grind it out girl! Do you know how many of us don't have the balls to even start the process you are closing in on completing? Do it!

American Underwear lasts for about 5 minutes before the elastic is fucked.
British Underwear lasts forever. For-fucking-ever. So long, apparently, that letting it go would be like assisted suicide for a healthy family member. I may or may not know a highschooler-to-be squeezing his butt into tighty-whitey style knickers I was horrified to see were (allegedly) for kindergarten-age (I know these are ones that were way to big for the age they said so completely bypassed the first boy and ended up on the second when he was somewhat older than that.... but still..... they must be eligible for pension by now) Action has been taken. Certain items will not be returning from the laundry. New short-lived-that-wont-get-his-ass-kicked-in-the-locker-room items have been purchased and approved. He thinks they'll be great for when he needs them. that need will occur sooner than he thinks..... that is all. Wait, no it isn't. I'm real pissed/somewhat miffed that the 3-month-old underwear is in worse shape than the 12-year-old-possibly-worn-for-4-years (  ) stuff
