Battle On.

For the academic who wants to give up.

Thoughts.

Nights, or lack of sleep, makes me emotional.
Sometimes I do feel like that.
It's always nice to receive a card from people I've worked with, and especially nice to see something that isn't generic. It's really interesting, what the clinical psychologist wrote - "you have the best manner with patients. please don't ever change!" She's obviously too kind, but I guess sometimes a genuine, non-judgemental ear really helps.
Perhaps our personalities are indeed set quite early, and maybe I am in the right job after all.
