Research Hates Me

There's just no two ways about it: research hates me. I have encountered every possible research-related obstacle that I can think of -- plus a few that I never, in a million years, would have considered. To the point that, anymore, I don't even care...I've just come to expect it and am very slowly learning not to take it personally. And oddly enough, I don't even hate research. I should but I don't. (Why not? Well, I'd have to do some research to figure that out. We'll just leave it as a nice unknown.)
