with the end of the semester and all the application deadlines, i have whipped myself up into a mental frenzy. the combination of caffeine and strict deadlines has kicked my brain into a gear i didn't know it had.
this was great for getting my shit done. however, now said shit is done. all i have to do is wait.
i tell my brain this, and it doesn't care. it insists on continuing to spin in high gear, and since i am not supplying it with anything productive to do, it is just following its own tangents; this recently has evolved to be explorations of the 'what if i don't get in' scenario.
my overactive imagination has decided for me that if i don't get in, i am going to croupier school and learning how to be a professional card dealer. i am going to ply that trade on cruise ships, until i eventually meet a darkeyed buxom brazilian novelist, and we settle down in rio to raise a brood of brilliant and attractive children together.
anyone else playing the 'what if' game? what are your outlandish contingency plans?
application,
