#i miss archaeology

[homochadensistm]

shout out to myself 3 years ago waking up hungover and most likely still high af in the middle of a שטח אש buttfuck nowhere desert, extremely confused by the solar system, on a project my entire body still hurts from to this day

#israel #archaeology #I miss the desert its so pretty #mashallah I got a new tent after that experience because jwhergfj #that tent did NOT keep me warm

scavenging abandoned tolkien blogs for fanart and shit posts that only got 200 notes back in 2014 when they should have another zero on there At Least

#the hobbit #lotr #smoking old toby #tumblr archaeology #bagginshield #fun facts about me. i was a lurker when i was in high school and college (the first time). same with ao3 #i would use the sites but i didn't make accounts #so i'm sure i missed out on a lot so i like going back through stuff from back then #my first social media was myspace and i used the name of the mc of the book i was reading at the time

The more I worm my way into (office based) academia, the more I miss that one job I had that involved being covered in mud and high vis for most of the day

#sigh #i wish i did archaeology tbh #miss being paid to bring out my inner gremlin #academia #pardon me guys i need to take a break from this publication planning meeting #and go walk into the nearest swamp

the archaeological community: obviously we won't make this precious site's exact location public because we don't want amateur grave robbers and pot hunters to destroy it

me, a gremlin with access to google earth and entirely too much time on my hands: uhuh

#mits did you find 6 archaeological sites with nothing but the internet and google earth yes i did what of it #it took hours and days and weeks but you know what? my curiousity is sated #like... you make the papers about these places public #OBVIOUSLY i am going to find them then i feel like its pretty simple #im missing 1 more on my bingo but i cant find anything written about it #archaeology #history #ruins

i am skeptical of a lot of therapy (CBT has done very little for me) but i did end up reaching out to the like. 2 dbt therapists in the country and i might be getting into the group therapy. i doubt it will solve all my problems especially with The Autism and anxiety and the lack of good adhd meds and the physical effects of stress even when doing the slightest thing and living in a place i don't feel comfortable or safe in and the existential dread etc etc. anyhow if i can at least like. gain some basic tools that will at least help me with at least a bit part of it. i'd love to. mostly bc the rest is gradually taking an actual physical toll and me and now i'm more and more exhausted and getting phantom pain mostly bc i tense up so hard and bc any shot of strong emotion leaves me exhausted, overstimulated, and barely able to move, never mind do any task which then worsens all the strong emotions etc etc etc. anyhow. it won't fix me i know that. maybe it can give me basic ways to break some of the worst cycles or at least cope with it. anyhow any usamerican ok with sending me adderall

#there's also additional stuff like coping with the fact that even if things here got better i just. cannot leave #im not being forced to but i simply do not have a support network elsewhere that would house me or be able to support me as i get used to- #a new environment #....not that would necessarily help lol i might just go through the exact same thing somewhere different #.......i miss the archaeology. it's not something i can do full time even if i had the qualifications #but it helped. made me so happy. and i cant do it again for a while. #eli talks #ze brains

why does media treat archaeologists so weirdly it’s so funny. why is “archaeologist parent neglects/abandons/~mysteriously disappears~ on their child” a trope. who hurt you comic book writers and movie writers and children’s tv show writers and

#ITS EVERYWHERE. YOU CANT GO FIVE INCHES IN DC WITHOUT ANOTHER KID WITH A MISSING ARCHAEOLOGIST PARENT AGSHDJD #and ninjago and EVERYTHING. everywhere. i would have more examples but #ironically i’m in archaeology class rn. still. baffling #archaeology #anthropology✨ #text✨ #anth n arch

[sinni-ok-sessi]

anyway it turns out going to a talk about Your Local Early Medieval Cemetery *is* what would cure me

#it was rad and I miss thinking about mortuary archaeology

#blimbo rambles #archaeology/anthropology I miss you so much come back to me

[winedark]

ur an archaeologist? that’s so cool! how do you like your work?

i am!! i love it very much, i’m fortunate to enjoy outdoor work enough that i can push through unfavourable weather (although it’s not as bad as you think!) but it’s truly such a dream job for me. digging something up and realising you’re the first person in hundreds of years to hold it is a feeling that never ever gets boring 💙

#asks #anonymous #thank youuu i love talking about archaeology omg #right now i’m working in a historic house for conservation which is also fun but god i miss the field so much #the company is great though and they have archaeologist positions that i’m aiming for 🤞

#guhhhh #tell me why I'm studying psych when my psych topics are always the ones with the worst grades #I literally did better in history and archaeology electives :') #I'm gonna miss studying history it was super interesting

Daydreaming about finding a way to move back to Scotland, and thinking about all the British archaeology stuff I would have to brush up on to make that even a remote possibility. And also I would have to transplant my cats, which sounds stressful for them.
