I emerge from the depths to say that I don't know if it's a midlife crisis, going up for tenure this quarter, or both, but I couldn't care less about a single thing related to teaching or research at this moment. I am neither invigorated or excited about this, nor can I even care about my classes this quarter because my schedule is designed to punish me and be mean for the last year that my boss knows she can because I can't pitch a fit and seem to be petty about it.
