lincoln3 made a comment about it earlier today that ringed true: I'm not terribly good at lying for any length of time, and a fortiori I can't easily lie to myself in the sense of temporarily believing that I need to accomplish something that, deep down in my guts, I believe is a stupid, worthless task.So I guess the big picture is, I really do want a legit research job of some kind, that involves me being able to choose what I want to work on to some degree, and a PhD seems like its the hoop I need to jump through to achieve that, so I really better quit my whining and get back on track.
Just gotta keep my eyes focussed on this summer.
