 		Axon withdrawal
Anyone else going through withdrawal? Well, not exactly withdrawal, but I keep getting a feeling that it's Tuesday, so I have something I should be doing, but can't place it.

If things get any worse, I might have to start picking up random payphones. Wink

edit - fixed the spelling since there'e nothing else for me to mod anymore - AD (yes I am in withdrawal)

 		lol, I was never able to go axon hunting but I do miss constantly reloading the recipe page, the unfiction boards, and looking for transcripts. It gave me something fun to do on Tuesdays. Now I actually have to try and do work. Oh well back to being productive.

I know how you feel. I think I'm going to be missing all of this for a long time to come. I can't see a payphone now without wondering if it might ring and wanting to pick it up. lol

<sigh> I've discovered that I really don't *want* to be productive.

The discussions on the forum have made me realize how much I miss writing...now, what I really want to do is go write a thesis of some sort.


Trade ya. I've got a thesis due around June next year. I'd rather be a productive member of society right now.

Blech. All my professors assumed I'd be a professor...and I'm starting to think they knew better than I did. The ivory tower's looking lovely right about now.

So, yes, I'd be willing to trade you.


I'm sure you've been to grad school. The politics, begging for grants, politics, any grants here?, etc. Best time of my life though, how I miss it.

Hah. Have you ever been out of school since you went?

The "real" work world is a nightmarish place where very few people care about anything of interest, there's almost no one to talk to (you know what I mean by "talk," yes?), those that are willing to talk usually don't know how, people are put off by word-play, and no one's read anything interesting lately.

There are a few havens: the arts, publishing...the arts...publishing...

LOL. I think the ivory tower's walls are sullied with the excrement that spews forth from the mouths of academics who love to hear themselves talk. Perhaps it's because i'm in biomedical sciences, but more often than not it's always talking shop. Having diverse interests is almost frowned upon. But don't let me burst your bubble. On second thought, maybe I'd be doing you a favor...

But yes, I've worked since graduating college - two years at the NIH, a government job, if you want to count that. Very little time outside of academia, however.

Anyway, I'll make you a bet - if Wisconsin wins the Roses, we can definitely talk trade Smile

The politics I can handle.

It's the sheer apathy out here that drives me nuts. In college, you have people who care passionately about the dating of figures on Etruscan pottery.

Here, people don't even *want* to know who the Etruscans were.


Maybe only Etruscan potters.

I agree with you that there are few (no) people at work with which you can have an intelligent converstion. Especially in liberal arts careers.
You can either find another job (most likely museum curator,or maybe reference librarian, or something) or join an extracurricular group of people with whom you share interests. (like, say, Unforums Smile )

Meh, or go to law school (current plan)...


I can just imagine it: "Mr Johnson, according to the dates derived from figures on this Etruscan water jug, your alibi does not hold water..."
