(see what I did there?) I’ve been mulling over returning to my blog to do the requisite “year in review” thing ever since I got my yearly wrap-up email from WordPress. According to them, this was a very successful blogging year for me, and I was “on fire” because of the 18 new entries I [...]

The Sweetest Word There Ever Was: Summer

After a long, long, graduate school-mandated hiatus, it has finally arrived: SUUUUMMMMMEEEEEERRRRR. I can hardly believe it, and it has yet to sink in. Other than the fact that Michael graduated on Friday and we spent today watching every romantic comedy playing on ABC Family, it doesn’t feel like the year is over. And yet, [...]
You Like Me, You REALLY Like Me!

I’m surprised I didn’t sit down on Thursday to dash off an entry as I was just brimming and bubbling with barely-contained excitement, though I imagine the distance afforded me coherence and structure I wouldn’t have otherwise had. If I’d written this on Thursday it would have been a blur of capslock and mashed exclamation [...]

It seems this is shaping up to be a Sunday night blog–I’m generally too busy (read: too braindead) to post during the week, but after a busy weekend of work, errands, and cleaning, a brief lull invariably occurs and I find myself needing an outlet for the few thoughts rattling around my skull. I chew [...]
Superbowl Live Blog!!1
Posted in Random, tagged michael on February 7, 2010 | 1 Comment »
PSYCH! (btw, I’m totes bringing “PSYCH!” back. You’re welcome). Another Superbowl Sunday is upon us, and once again I take a moment to thank my lucky stars that I am completely, totally, entirely genetically unpredisposed to enjoy, understand, or excel at, even in some small capacity, sports. I do understand that I am in the [...]

Before I launch into a MUCH overdue update, I would like to mention that today’s entry is brought to you by Ms. Knowles’ not-really-recent-but-hey-I’m-an-old-out-of-touch-broad-what-can-you-expect album that I downloaded on Amazon.com today for their $3.99 special. If you too are a sadly crusty codger like yours truly with dim hopes of remaining quasi-relevant, go scoop it [...]
I Sit, Therefore I Blog

It’s such a shame to sit down before your computer, knowing that much has transpired since the last entry, knowing that your readers CLAMOR to know of your life events, knowing that if you could just muster an ounce of strength you’d summon your wit and verbosity. To that, I say, “Meh.” Don’t get me [...]

I’m not going to lie. Michael and I watched Julie & Julia earlier this evening, and it is completely my reason for writing. Not that I’ve deluded myself into thinking that anyone besides friends, family, and the occasional stalker read this, but still. My poor, neglected blog. It needs some quality time. *petpet* Things have [...]
“Almost” Only Counts in Horseshoes and Hand Grenades…and Vehicular Homicide

So, I hit a bicyclist with my car on campus this week. … Sigh. I know what you’re all thinking. In most people’s minds, it is inconceivable that in this kind of accident, the cyclist could actually be the one at fault. If you are one of those people, kindly stop reading and refrain from [...]
