relapse
I guess I felt entitled to a little bit of indulgence, since I had taken a stab at chipping away at my stack of reading. I’ve read less than half a book and skimmed another, though: progress which definitely does not justify my purchase of two more books this afternoon. I was in Barnes & [...]
if wishes were fishes, beggars would ride
I wish I weren’t stage managing this quarter. I’m having fun with the Tattoo Girl process, and I’m looking forward to getting started on the Bacchae, but I miss my evenings off.
If I still had my evenings off, instead of having chicken nuggets and hasty salads and hot pockets for dinner before running to rehearsal [...]
I can explain.
I took my laptop to school and left it there for a few days. So when blog inspiration struck while I was sitting on the couch these past few days, the daunting task of trying to keep warm in my frigid bedroom to get it onto the Internerd through my desktop kept me firmly planted [...]
“I think what we’ve got here is a thing.”
Today I am home sick from school. I was fine yesterday until about four o’clock, at which point my body said, “You, to the couch. Right now. Or else!”

get that son-a-gun off my tractor!
The news of the morning is that Emily’s notoriety continues to grow all over the Interwebs, now that The Gamer Gene and Grrr have hopped on the “look how cute these are!!” bandwagon. Em’s knitted mushroom desk pals are pretty much the most adorable desk pals ever created so there’s really no surprise there.
In other [...]
more than a feelin’
I have approximately three (3) buttloads of reading to do for tomorrow. I haven’t looked at my assignments yet, actually, so I can’t be sure, but I do know that I have my most reading-intensive classes back-to-back-to-back tomorrow morning and that gives me the vaguest of senses that I should maybe be doing something.
So I [...]
