Mar 11, 2008 Never ask a woman her age…Generally, when I meet new people, the conversation goes something like this: “Hi, I’m Katy.” “So, what do you do?” “I’m a grad student here.” “Oh. What year are you?” “Six.” awkward pause… Then they either ask the obvious question (“When are you graduating?”) or quickly change the subject (“Look at that, I need a refill.”). The debate always rages in my head whether to admit that I’ve been here as long as I have or to say something cryptic like “N+1,” but I figure the truth will come out eventually and I might as well get it over with. At this point you are probably thinking “Six years? How embarrassing! I’ll be out of here way before that!” or, if you’re past your first year: “Gee, I wish someone had warned me.” So if it’s the former, consider yourself warned… not that you’ll listen, you young punk. You kids these days and your loud music and your Interweb. Back in my day we didn’t have the Guitar Hero and viral videos, when we wanted to procrastinate we… Oh right, sorry ‘bout that. Anyway, if you’re as old and senile as I am, take comfort in the fact that there are many people who’ve been here just as long or longer than you have. And if I can admit my year without shame, so can you. Just don’t ask me when I’m graduating…

Home based business and internet promoted by Jeff Paul marketing are running the grass-root level micro economics. Some times I feel it’s a blessing.
