Too Too Funny

Well, here I am, in the temporary GOE reference library, procrastinating. I keep thinking that I am going to study or prepare for this test in some way and I just don’t know how to do it. How does one study for a comprehensive essay exam? Is it possible to learn anything more than what I already know? Can I ingest large amounts of data into my brain in just the right way so that they will be accessible to me in a few days? Sigh. I just don’t think so. But, I have done a few things. I cleaned out my office - organizing and filing all of the piles of paper that were taking space on my desk. I organized my bookshelf, getting rid of all the crap and paperwork that I had just flung on top of the books. I also put all the books in sections so that I could find them relatively easily. Since I’m taking the test in my office at home, it seemed reasonable to create a work space that would provide space and comfort for me to work. I’ve now also checked out the temporary library and feel reasonably confident that I could find some random piece of data that I might need next week. The last thing I need to do is to practice using the GOE web site to make sure that I’m able to create and submit my answers in their electronic text box. And this is where the procrastinating comes in. I was good until I opened my laptop, but there is so much great stuff to do online that I wandered away. In my wandering, I came across an email that my good friend, Kath, sent to me a couple of weeks ago. I contained a link to a YouTube video that is just too funny not to share with y’all. So, here it is. Enjoy!
