A-B-C (It's easy as 1-2-3!)

As of late I have been a little stressed out.

I knew it would happen like this:

Step 1: Get fed up enough to finally grab life by the balls and quit my job.
Step 2: Become elated and celebrate my temporary corporate freedom!
Step 3: Realize that I need to find a new job or I'm fucked.

Finances have been getting me down a little, so I've created an Excel file to track my income, bills, checking and savings account balances, and so on, which will enable me to be in complete control and in the know of my current fiscal situation. Huzzah!

In addition to that, I'm taking Perception this summer, offered by one of my favorite university psychology professors. I have spent so much time over the past few days sleeping, procrastinating, and concerning myself with my job, that I had (like usual) waited until the last minute to write my paper for Perception, which entailed choosing one of two scientific articles, each discussing a specific optical illusion, summarizing my article of choice and its experiments, then finding another scientific article proposing a different theory of perception than the original article of my choice, summarizing that, and finally explaining which theory I feel is more valid and backing up my opinion.

After reading the article that I decided to use for my paper, I re-read the paper instructions and realized that the draft due tomorrow is OPTIONAL. Optional!

I was so excited that I danced around naked in my kitchen listening to Brian Setzer Orchestra and Kurt Nilsen and eating a chocolate chip bagel.

Back to basics.
