Re: About starting
Yeah, I don't mean to be like I don't have a plan at all (right now the plan is: graduate, go to grad school) it's just that they never, ever, ever pan out like I plan them. Which is why I'm nervous to even start something that's not supposed to end until 2018, much less think about anything beyond that.
But, hey! Lots of people like plan to get married and have a house with a cheap mortgage and that's just like something that happened to me by accident while I kept being unable to decide which coast I wanted to live on. Which BTW if I'd decided to stay on the other coast the plan was to already have the BS degree by this time and who knows what the hell I'd be doing with it but I surely wouldn't have this rad house and spouse.
Anyway I told my doctor boss that the plan was to get the Ph.D. and then fucking retire, and he said that actually tons of people say they're going to do that but then they end up teaching for 40 years, which would also be cool.
