New job and London
I will be working as a research technician at the University at Buffalo Research Institute on Addictions. Its only a part time position since I refuse to work full time while being still in school, but they did offer. My kid and a personal life mean too much to me and I am not one of those people who can do 5 things at once. Plus, I'm kinda lazy. But the good news is; even tho this is a part time position, I get full benefits. YAY!!! When does that ever happen.
Because I have to start this new job on January 3rd, I decided I must go on vacation. I'm done with school after this weekend, after I turn in all my late shit, so, next Sunday I'm going to London. Sunday to Friday. I'm totaly stoked. I went last year in January and had perfect weather, I can't wait to go to Harrod's during xmas time!

Anthony-My secret lover
He swears, he drinks, he smokes, and he's got a snide sense of humor. My kind of man.

Back from TO
The trip was interesting. I was by far the youngest person on the trip, but that's all right with me. I could not take any pics of the exhibit, the guards were roaming around like the KGB, shaking anyone down that dared to take out a cell phone or camera. The exhibition was on Catherine the Great, and the key piece was her carriage
It was so beautiful. Definitely worth seeing.
We are all sick in my house. My daughter's sick, running a fever of 103, my boyfriend is claiming to be sick, after spending Saturday night with me, and of course I am still sick, after a week of snots and phlegm and hacking.
My huge classification project is finished, which leaves me with the following to turn in by Thursday
Application Exercise 8
Collection Development Policy
Scholarly Article
Selection Policy Critique
Practice Exercise 5 (due today)
Not panicking or anything....

This comes as a nice break from all the grad school projects that are piled on my shoulders (which are all due next Thursday). I just finished a 43 page classification project, WHEW!
ps. I am feeling kind of lucky today, maybe its time to play the Lotto.

In response to Robin's post
Historically women, who have held positions of great power, have not been so nice. Contemporary leaders such as Thatcher, Imelda Marcos and Indira Gandhi have shown to be just as cold as their male counterparts. I won't even delve into historical female leaders, but they don't fear well either. Why these women behave the way they do is up for speculation. Maybe they have something to prove in a male dominated world. Maybe it is just human nature, male or female, to fall under the spell of absolute power.
Nevertheless, I think it is wrong to expect women to behave differently than men do, because of their perceived and perhaps imposed, "nurture" expectations. I personally resent when people expect me to behave "womanly". Caring and nurturing does not come to me naturally, and I resent those who assume it does. We don't teach our daughters to covet power, to appreciate it, and to desire it. Our boys know how to do that. They are taught through sports, in school, in political offices, and even through and in, interpersonal relationships.
I can guarantee you things would be a lot different if we taught boys to be kind, giving, gentle and nurturing while teaching girls to be aggressive, challenging and just plain hungry. Maybe the playing fields would even out a bit.

My hair
Now I have half a bang ( full bang on left side, NO bang on righ side) and a lot of forehead, and my boyfriend laughed at me. I do this regrettable stuff all the time. Why?

Shit!
I am barely able to keep up with the school work anyway. Who knew library science could be so intense! And I too will not have a job to look forward to when I graduate. I too will have spent 80,000 on an education that will leave me working as a barista.
Go figure...
I'm running away to Belize.
