I don't want to...

Ugh. I'm not in the worst of moods today, but I feel really bleh. I have filled out all of my paperwork to begin work next week but I'm not sure that I want to work where I'm working.

I love the students. I love working with students and making them reach the "ah ha" moment. But all of you that work with students and math know, it's not always theorems and equations, elegant ones of course.

There's the drama of having to deal with the students who are going to question things and not listen to you when you are answering their questions. There are the students who are as difficult to deal with as the Riemann Hypothesis and you just aren't sure whether or not their problems are solvable, and I'm not talking about purely the math ones.

There are a lot of issues that I have with my workplace right now that I'm not sure I want to think about even.

At least this weekend I will be going to a wedding and thinking about my day and nothing else. Well, maybe some Topology, Physics, Psychology (Intro 2 Psych. btw), and research. But more on that in just a little while. This post is purely negative and it's staying that way.

Fine.
