"If you want this choice position, / Have a cheery disposition..."
Tuesday, September 6th, 2005 10:46 pmOh, so tired. :-} My last day at MIT tomorrow promises to be a very long one, and I'm headed to bed.
But, in the middle of this intensive soul-searching period, I shall first post this list that I wrote up a couple of years ago and have been meaning to post ever since.
The list itself is undated, but the to-do list scrawled on the reverse is dated July 2002, and I suspect this dates from sometime that fall. Make of that what you will. I might augment it slightly, today, but on the whole it still seems impressively thorough.
( What I wish for in a partner )
The current status of these various elements is left as an exercise for the reader.
I am tempted to turn off comments, but I don't necessarily want to stifle sincere discussion on these topics.
However, ANYONE who (is not my current partner and) sends me ANYTHING resembling a checked-off application -- even in jest, and those of you whom I'm addressing bloody well know who you are; yes, you -- will be summarily killed. I'm just not in the mood for that kind of feedback, thanks.
