Life after Phd

A newly started blog called Deep Thought, (there is a name that demands living up to!) has written a list of things to do after the Phd. The list applies equally well to those of us not doing a phd in Anthropology.

1. Reaquaint yourself with your family, but be especially careful of partners/spouses/parents/friends/children who have aged five years since you last noticed them.
2. Get drunk (it doesnâ??t matter if you have a headache tomorrow)
3. Clean the fridge
4. Clean the house
5. Have sex (not necessarily in this order!)
6. Read something NOT published by Routledge, Sage, Berg, etc.
7. Change your email signature to include â??Drâ??
8. Switch the computer off before 5pm every day
9. Lie in every Sunday
10. Give birthday/christmas presents WITHOUT lecturing people about â??gift exchangeâ??
11. Move textbooks into spare bedroom
12. Accidentally leave your latest published article on the coffee table for when your mother-in-law visits
