Wishes, Three

1. I wish I hated peanuts. They are evil, addictive things that beckon to me as I walk by the bowl. In fact, I find reasons to walk by the bowl and grab one or three. For instance, "Hmmm, I wonder what that sound is coming from the kitchen. I must check it out." And like magic, my hand is full of broken shells, and I am cramming the salty goodness into my mouth!

2. I wish Spring would sit and stay already! I'm so tired of the cold. And snow in April after weeks of 80 degree days? Good grief! Spring is teasing me with warm temperatures that lull me into a false sense of security only to catch me without a jacket or coat when the weather snaps with barely a few seconds notice before snow starts falling - again. Then Spring laughs her evil laugh, and I can hear it. She can bite me. (I am a creature of habit wherein January should be cold and blustery, and April should be warm and sunny with a slight chance of tulips and Easter bunny sitings. Therefore, do not remind me of my past joy when I once welcomed a blizzard with open arms weeks ago - that was then, this is now. So, Hah!)

3. I wish grad school were easy. I thought it would be candy and roses and fluffiness and Kumbayah. But alas, no. It is reading and reading and reading. Then there are papers, discussion postings, quizzes, more reading, journal entries, concepts, reading, and oh so many theories to learn. Blech!!

What's the old saying? Oh yes. "This too shall pass." Eventually we will be vacationing in sunny San Antonio with all of this behind us (me), and bitching about the heat. I hope...

Sounds like you are a very busy woman. I envy the fact that I know you will get through it and do well. Guess what!?! I've been accepted to UCO's Psychology Graduate Program!! I enroll *cross my fingers* on the 23rd of April. Unless the schedule at work doesn't work out. I'm excited!!!

Shut UP! Really?? You are awesome! We should celebrate soon. You have to tell me all about it. And just think, you get to go to class in the "round" building. Remember it? We could get lost just going in circles - hhahaha... maybe there's a psych reason for that? There's a Thesis or Dissertation topic for ya! **hugs**

It WILL pass! It has to, or else no one would have master's degrees, and then where would we be? :) I also wanted to ask if your title had absolutely anything to do with Monty Python and the Holy Grail. Because as soon as I saw it I thought of the part when they are trying to cross the bridge and they must answer these "questions, three." Haha, I'm probably off my rocker, but there you go!
