About Me

I’m a 30-year-old (!!!), single, charming, and totally dorky girl taking on the ridiculous New York dating scene. When guys are surprised to see a sex kitten emerge from behind my dorky exterior, I just smile and reply, “Who ever said that dorks can’t be sexy?" [More]

My first big acceptance package came in the mail today

22 Feb 2010

Everything all of a sudden seems so REAL now that I’m holding the 100% official — signed by the dean of the graduate school – acceptance letter and fellowship offer in my hands. On university letterhead. In a nice shiny folder. With dollar signs and a little box to check “accept” and give them my social security number and sign up for direct deposit. And health care enrollment info. And housing info. And a big fat welcome and congrats from all the various heads of departments and committees. DUDE, I am SO loving this. I almost squealed out loud when I saw the big fat envelope in the mail today! Looking back, I don’t know why I didn’t, actually.

Let’s see… how many more days before I can quit my job and sign on the dotted line??? : )

So exciting!!!!
