Found out my uncle has stage 4 cancer today and will be lucky to live 3 months. He's the healthiest person I've ever met besides this. 47, bikes 50+ miles a day in the mountains. Very active. I'm pretty upset please post dog pictures for me

I have no dog pictures :( I have bird pictures though.










Sometimes he holds my hand and won't give it back.

I think to qualify as a crazy [x] lady, legally, I need multiple [x].

I might make them feel inadequate being tall, having $$$ and 2 years older, but I wouldn't mind being a sugar mama, really

What a coincidence, me too!

I went to an amazing show last night! Tiny Moving Parts opened up for The Fall of Troy and they were both amazing.





I got a bit drunk and took a selfie that I look terrible in but it made me laugh

Haha, I'm not rich, but I do earn more than my peers. Mocking Bird I thought we had already agreed to be together and rule the Americas!

How do I go asking out grad students, if they live in Uni and have no social lives?

I do not understand how you could be so mistaken.
It is actually a good selfie, silly goose!

A lot of them will use OKCupid. Also they do have somewhat stilted social lives, you can find such in bars. But really, scour the cafes and academic libraries and look for people intent on their work, clearly extremely low in self esteem, probably poorly dressed although in a more "mature" way than undergrads, if that makes sense.

PS: So glad I graduated, that was not a good time. :gonk:

As a poor graduate student who rarely interacts with humans that aren't my roommates or students, I appreciate subtle cues from women like "Hey, come with me. I want to do things to your face and maybe body."

I cannot ever do that. My way of flirting is scowling at them and never show interest unless they say they like me for whatever reason.

Oh, that is no way to attract the reclusive Graduate Student! You will have to settle for people with higher social awareness and libido.

Dog pic. His original family never trimmed his nails, so check them suckers out. The vet has been grinding them down slowly but for now the pup is just tap dancing away on our hardwood floor. He's peeping at a squirrel on a nearby fence here.



Also, I just got a haircut but have still not learned how to take good (and/or smile for) selfies:

Transitioning into industry is the actual right cure to grad school woes, if you can pull that off. My smarter friends even did it before graduating! :v:

Man it takes me like 30 minutes every morning to achieve that texture you jerk



Some days are more successful than others. I ended up just blowing mine wavy today rather than deal with the curl.

I left after my masters and haven't looked back, but the book I contributed to is getting published this year!
