lighting-fast 2009....

"Happy New Year! oh my god, I can't believe it's 2009 already! another year of partially fulfilled resolutions has passed - um, wait, what were my resolutions....oh well, time to make new ones..."

"OMG, it's end of january already! must pass qualifier exam....must wrap and send gifts to loved ones.....must get anniversary gift.....must be prepared for February....must get back on the lab experimenting horse.....must get back to reality!"

"holy #$%^! it's almost March! wait, it is March - how did that happen?! ok, St. Patty's day green stuff extravaganza - check! ok, March madness basketball thingamajigie small talk - check! back onto work wagon and getting some stuff done - done! continue to add things to list of things that will not be done in the near future and very possibly will never get done, unless due to unusual circumstances - check!"

"g**da**it! what the hell happened to the last week in March and first week in April?! i'm serious, where did the time go? why must the universe forsaken me? why have i lost my sense of 'time' or 'progression'? *sighhhhhh*"

As the above paragraphs clarify, I somehow lived the first third of 2009 without really feeling it. Interesting, isn't it? Downright scary, eh? Is someone drugging my soymilk? 'Who are you and why am I in this handbasket?'

Well, that about sums up how I feel in recent days. Hope everyone else is doing better!
