Something that cheers me up already--
Richard Dawkins is delivering a series of lectures here! The first one was today, actually. The next one is tomorrow, at 5. Unfortunately, the third one is a panel but it's going to be in the KSG at 10 in the morning, which is not such great timing.
He's going to be speaking on religion and science. I disagree with the Great Atheist on almost all of his opinions on the subject (what few I know of, that is) but how can I miss the chance to see the man who came up with the selfish gene theory?
I still feel awful, but slightly less awful now.

Date: 2003-11-20 06:46 pm (UTC)but I don't like the fact that you were unhappy to begin with.
Hang in there, chica - you're one of the smartest people I know [I say this and mean every dang pixel of it]. Both you and I know that you can go through hell and back. You said it yourself - it's just burnout. Kind of like Bean [grar, you have me reading Ender's Game, Ender's Shadow, and Speaker for the Dead rabidly... >_<], brilliant but human and in need of time to recuperate.
Sorry if that wasn't helpful...
<3,
Danica
