(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 [...]

I am currently sitting at my school carrel in a weird stasis that I never, ever experience–I don’t have anything to do. Sure, I have lots I could be doing, but I’ve worked out my schedule for the week and the task that I thought would take much longer than it did (a cursory analysis [...]

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 [...]
Carolina On My Mind

(This blag has been pre-recorded. Please do not call.) As expected, school has taken over my life and is srsly starting to cut into my sitting around time, hence no blagging. I’ve adopted the philosophy that if sitting down to write an entry becomes just another stressor on the list, then I simply won’t do [...]

This post serves no other purpose than for me to declare that I am on a plane, flying back to Indianapolis after my grandfather’s birthday celebration in Atlanta, and SURFING THE INTERWEBS, THAT’S RIGHT. I guess I shouldn’t be amazed that technology like this exists now, but dammit, thinking back to my first internet experience–America [...]
My Dream Job, or Exercises in Selling Out
Posted in Pipe Dreams, tagged food, travel on July 29, 2009 | 4 Comments »
Okay, so we all know I’m on the not-so-straight-and-narrow path to lifelong nerddom in academia, and that I am also very happy about that. I couldn’t think of anything I could do better than read, write, and eventually be a persnickety Music History professor. There is one job, however, that I will covet all my [...]
