WYFP - The Waiting, and Little Disappointments

So I’m still waiting on my application to be reviewed and and I’m feeling less and less confidant as it goes on.  My research partner A got into the Biology Master’s program, so he’s set, another one of my cohorts had his interview last week — and I’ve heard nothing at all.  Other than that the university portal ate part of my application and thankfully the search team head reached out to me and let me email my documents to her.  So yeah, not feeling super confidant at the moment.

Then I got an email notice that I was getting a refund for the comedy show this coming week I had purchased my single ticket for — and nothing else — no reason for cancelling, just hey, you get your money back.  Which is nice and all, but I really wanted to see the show.  It’s like the one thing I do all year for myself, I’ve been to his shows here the last 2 years, and it was just another crappy thing to happen.  I checked his website and it just said there were no shows in my state.

Next weekend I will be in San Antonio for the SWPA conference, it’s the Southwest Psychological Association annual do, I went last year and it was ok.  I am only going Thursday to Saturday and coming home that night.  I’m not presenting, just supporting the others and hanging out.  It should be interesting.  I get a bit stressed out about things at conferences, so I am just trying to stay cool and keep it together for the trip and back.

It’s also my dad’s birthday, and I’ve been thinking about him today too, which is always a mixed bag.

So what’s up in your world?
