Tough week + cruel world = me going home on Friday and hugging my giant dog for 12 or 15 hours. #FeelingsFriday

Waded into politics on #Facebook twice in a week. Obviously it went really well and literally everyone agrees with me now. #sothatsgood

If anyone needs me, I'll be under my desk eating goldfish and quietly whimpering. #SometimesResearchIsHard #phd #phdlife #researchwoes
