gogmagog: The Fourth Doctor from <i>Doctor Who</i> (Slutstorms!)
Hmmm, the doctor called, and apparently all that's wrong with me is that I'm majorly anemic...an iron supplement twice a day and I should be right as rain. It's nice to know that I'm not going to go into liver failure, and I guess it also explains why I feel so tired all the time.

In not really related news, Elizabeth Berkley's career high (from [livejournal.com profile] jantalaimon). Funnily, this is the one scene everyone (and I mean EVERYONE) who is anywhere around my age has seen.

Actually I have kind of been there, during finals week of my first semester in grad school, and needless to say it was not fun.

Also, LJ has made a public apology for the mass deletion. What amuses me most about this is the whole "mistakes were made, journals were suspended, things were not communicated" passive voice used for nearly every description of the problem aside from one or two instances of "we made a mistake." Classic responsibility-denying bureaucreatese - the great thing about passive voice is that it means you don't have to assign responsibility/blame for anything! Things can just happen all by themselves, fancy that! (Note that I'm not actually complaining about this, just observing it, since I'm much more conscious about style than usual thanks to my current class on critical style.)

...Speaking of said summer class, only two more days of it (today is the last day with assigned reading) and then I am free! And I will be leaving for Rome in almost exactly two weeks. :D
