I will never do this again. Do you hear me Internet?
I am making you responsible to personally chew me out because I don't think I trust myself NOT to take two courses and work full time while being a mother and partner - again.

I had almost convinced myself that I can do this for one more semester.
However, I re-evaluated tonight as every little thing Franklin did seemed to intentionally piss me off.
Upon further reflection and inquiry with D, there is no toddler conspiracy to make The Mother insane. He's just being a regular three year old and I'm being a regular cranky bitch that can't handle a child head butting me in the ass as I bend over to pick up his coat he just tossed oh-so-casually onto the floor behind him.

I have a large post in mind regarding why I am doing this, where this ambitious drive is coming from and how I will provide a reputation for myself as "The Crazy lady on the Internet Who Thinks the Sky is Falling", but now is not the time to do it.

Now is the time for writing about New Urbanism and Walkable Suburbs, Edmonton neighbourhoods and Design Charrettes, the economics of Road Diets and community involvement. These are all things I want to bury my head into and concentrate on for the next few days until I can finally lift out of the fog and turn in something of which I am immensely proud.
However, I know this will not happen. It's not possible.

Instead, I will do the best I can "under the circumstances" while I simultaneously write Christmas cards, go to Truck Light Parades and visit Santa Claus in the mall.
(Oh, and I’ll try and show up for work on time and stick my tongue down my partner's throat for a bit so he’ll remember who I am)

You know, I don’t think I’d want this any other way – except for one less course, please.

Holy Moses.
Why the hell am I writing right now?!?!?!
