Grad School Ate My Soul

I didn't want this to happen, but alas, it has. I have a half-written post from my cross-country journey, but I also have about 100 papers/tests to grade (not an exaggeration), an GTF application I need to complete, research I have to do... AND National Novel Writing Month is on the horizon! I want to attempt that... but I'm not sure I'll have anywhere near the time. I'm not giving up on this just yet, but I have a lot of stuff to get done before I can sit down and write some creative stuff. Any NaNo updates will be posted on my NaNo page. Won't be posting any of my papers on here, even if they're good, cuz that's just not what academic work is for. I also need to set up and familiarize myself with WordPress, as that is apparently helpful in getting Grad School Funding. Who knew?
