Please excuse my French.

Here's the thing. I can't tell you how many problems I've had with my data for my thesis up to this point. If something can go wrong, it most definitely will, and multiple times over. I can't tell you how many times I have ripped DVD recordings of sessions to the computer, or how many times I have exported videos to however many different formats. I can't tell you how much data has been lost because people don't know how to run technology (let's just say we learned to handpick our volunteers), or how many angry pop ups telling me I can't do what I'm trying to do I've had to figure out. I can't tell you how many times I've contacted our computer really literate genius to help me out of my latest bind. In fact, I'm pretty sure he tries to avoid me now. Most of all, I can't tell you how much stress and the number of headaches this has caused.

With that said, my latest and greatest thought process: "Theses" sounds a mighty lot like "feces." Working on my thesis is like working on, well, crap. I thus deem the striking similarity appropriate. a+b=c. Really the only simple thing about my thesis so far. Therefore, from here on out, I will only be working on my "fece."

But it's okay, because I just bought these shoes on a really great sale online. I next to never impulse buy. In fact, I'm really good at talking myself out of buying things. These splendors, however, I completely 100% bought on pure impulse, and it felt good.

I love to impulse buy! You did a great job talking yourself into those cute shoes! I hope your feces production picks up. Metamucil helps :)

Just be sure to avoid stepping in any feces with those.
