I really wish that I could say I was unhappy with what I'm doing right now. That sounds strange, I know. I just wish I had an excuse to fucking go home and relax. Instead I sit in lab and do homework, grading, or research for 14-18 hours a day, sometimes more, get little to no sleep, and neglect the people I care about, and who care about me. I wish I could say that I am sorry for that.
But I can't.
I love it.
I wish I had someone to come home to and hold. I just had a really rough week. I feel like someone picked me up, dunked me in a vat of silicon oil and beat me against the wall for 6 days straight. But you know what? That dead-weary feeling isn't all I have right now--I really feel accomplished. Up until now I've just been happy about getting to where I am, but now I can feel proud of the work I've done since I've gotten here.
I love this shit.

the feeling of accomplishment... no matter how much shit you must wade through, no matter what tortuous hell you must endure, the idea that you have done something great is amazing beyond words. i'm glad that you've reached something like that 
but as to the rough week, i'm sorry to hear about that. hopefully things start looking up. i am starting to have a rough week now, so maybe you are getting the good vibes from my week
