Happy Birthday to me, J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter, and Wesley Snipes!

I am celebrating my birthday doing homework. When I told a client on Friday that this was how I'd be spending most of my weekend, he said, "But you write papers every weekend!" I replied that being in grad school is a little like having your back waxed; it's uncomfortable and inconvenient at the time but the results are worth it.

Actually I'm very bored with this class and can't wait for it to be over. It doesn't help that she's taking forever to grade our previous assignments so I'm not able to gauge how much effort I need to put in at this stage. I'm the biggest procrastinator in the world and it's getting harder and harder to motivate myself to get this stuff done.
