I hate writing job applications

It's job application season, so here I am dusting off my application materials from previous years.
I read through my statement of research interests and realized that I need to completely re-write it from scratch. Aside from the fact that it physically pains me to read it, it's completely out of date. But then, perhaps the former is related to the latter.
So the good news is, I've made progress in the last two years!
The bad news is, I have a lot of writing to do ASAP.

The job might be closer to Boston??
