Take a break. Indulge in mind-candy.

The real bitch about theory is that for any academic profession, you must know it...even though it's "just a theory."

@ Belle -- thanks. Three days later, and I just did. Mind-candy movie from iTunes. I won't say which, but let's just say that my very young niece & nephew & I could have enjoyed it together.

@ Bardiac -- this reminds me of an incident in grad school, where another student... oh, it would take too long to tell. Let's just say that your comment made me laugh.

@ Michael -- Different kind of "theory." (Wouldn't you know it? Even the vocabulary we invent to talk about the things we invent to talk about things is inscrutable.)

One of the most awesomest posts ever.

I'm still good at thinking I know what I'm talking about and being dead wrong. I think I'd rather be back working at the coffee shop now.
