Unhealthy Higher Education

Writing a dissertation is not very healthy:

Too much take out + too much coffee = Stomach ache

Hours sitting = Stiff joints + achy knees

Pages and pages of reading = Bad eyes

Pages and pages of typing = carpet tunnel syndrome (I remember reading that somehwere and thought it was funny + I don't feel like looking up the right way to spell it)

Day and days inside = Growing waistline + vanishing sanity

Impending deadlines = High stress + tense back

Too much thinking, analyzing, and composing = Brain death

The surgeon general needs to put out a warning about this. Something needs to change around here once this draft is complete.
