Sememsters ending

Current mood:busy

The semesters almost done, a few crits this week and next and then I get a nice break, i can just think about ME for a while, which I can really use. This has been one fucking up and down year! Like a roller coaster full of broken glass! I was pretty god dam raw and mad for a while and the plates were all spinning at maximum.

But i found out who loved me and who didn't, who my friends really are and how great they can be when the jagged edge cuts deep. I had great new experiences teaching and i think focusing on that was a real boost and work continues to help recoup the bank account, no thanks to the fucking economy.

This year has certainly been completely different in a lot of ways than I ever expected, but as the Buddists say, life is suffering, so i hope with the amount of suffering chalked up, now it will be a little responsive universe to spin some good karma my way.

    Here's hoping for some good karma! Sounds like you had it pretty rough my friend! If you need to vent, you have a friend a fan of your work waiting to listen to you!
