I'm up this early because I move today and I'm anxious and depressed. However, logically it makes sense. I just hate change and down-grading from my lake view to a ****** little room at my mother's that isn't even drywalled. However, I can always move back if I find stability or move to my sister's in California and start over there.

Either way, I need to find a better job. One that gives me a W2, health benefits and sick days. I have a college degree now. The only trouble is, I don't want an office job where I'm working on spreadsheets. The days would go by too slowly. I like my job but it's half the reason I'm moving out, the other half is because of my mental illness. Life really can kick you in the ***. I was on a flight path and then next thing I know I'm looking up at the stars, rubbing my bead, wondering what just happened. What a tragedy that those in the philosophy department couldn't forgive someone who clearly was not themselves. Why that department hires average joes instead of great people are beyond me. I think a great person would have found the strength to see it was the mental illness and forgive me. sigh, im still prickly about this.
Good luck with your move...have we seen kitty pics yet? I may have missed them, if not I'd say that's an oversight on your part....

As far as not dry walled just call it industrial and you'll feel slightly better....

I'm sorry your profs didn't treat you right often the training they get is to protect themselves and the university and not students, for example I was always told to keep the door to my office open when talking to a student just so they can't claim something happened that didn't...we live in a litigious society so the rules assume the worst.
