struggling not to be a statistic

[rosaw]

but all I really want to do is embrace my statistical (seeming) inevitability and read Dissipation and Despair, watch tv and turn my brain to jello.

Studies show that 50 percent of people [both men and women] who begin a doctorate drop out at the dissertation-writing stage. Statistic from Sistermentors.

I got up at 6:30 this morning and right now I have 6 loads of clean laundry and 3 sentences to show for it. I shoulda maybe slept in after all.

I can always count on you to see the silver lining. :-)
