I have a midterm tomorrow

so I'm doing everything under the sun but study. Why am I such a loser when it comes to studying? I hate it! Though really it's just the class. If it's a mathy class then I'm all for it. Last Fall when I took biostats I was all over it and loved to do the work. I didn't have to study because I did all the other work and it was open book/open note and I ended up w/ over a 100% final grade I think, there was a little bonus. Piece of cake. Now I'm taking molecular bio for grad credit, took it in undergrad around 1998, but it's just one of those bio classes that suck and I hate and don't have an interest and don't want to study. How the hell did I end up w/ a BS in bio if I hate it so much, plus a DVM which was 4 more years of the same crap, I don't fucking know! I'd just rather watch the Tour right now even though I know who wins and I'm exhausted because I stayed up way too late last night doing nothing but eating candy and Coldstone so now I can't stay up late to study. Maybe tomorrow at work will be slow and I can study, though today was slow and I only got in a little studying.

So I'll probably watch the Tour until 11 and then go to bed and hope somewhere I get to study. Good thing no one seems to ask what my grades are in these classes that they (my PI and postdoc program) make me take, though I did get an A in biostats and the bacT class didn't have a grade, so for now my postdoc academic record is fine, until tomorrow I suspect...Plus I can always boycott. Postdocs don't take classes!!!! unless it's for another degree and in my case it isn't!
