Broken Promises

I promised y’all photos from San Antonio.  Alas, I got back to Philly over a week ago, and no photos.

San Antonio was beautiful–warm, sunny, and professionally rewarding.  Unfortunately, my trip to San Antonio was also the calm before a completely unexpected disaster of a storm.  I’m in over my head right now, and I think […]

Quickie…

… ’cause I’m leaving town tomorrow for a conference and am frantically trying to finish my conference paper (I know, I know. But this one totally snuck up on me!).
Yeah. So I’m leaving tomorrow for a conference in San Antonio. Things have been stressful (and grumpy) lately, and I thought that it […]

Dreaming

I had a dream the other day that I was done with my dissertation.  I was at graduation, walking down the pedestrian walk-way at my school in a haze of sunshine.  The only lasting impression from this dream that was able to I carry with me into waking was a sense of overwhelming elation, of […]

Looking Forward…

Happy [belated] New Year to you all.
It’s strange, I’ve been thinking so much about posting lately — constructing posts in my head during the brisk hour-long walk home from school, while in the shower, while making dinner — that I forget I haven’t actually posted them. It’s a shame; I’ve had a lot to […]

O, Holey Night!*

I can’t believe I’ve only posted twice in the last month.  It’s a testament, I guess, to how busy things have been.  But now, student portfolios are evaluated, grades are turned in, moving is (almost) completed, and I have arrived safely at my parents home for a week of good food, too much Law & […]

Merger

Recently, D and I decided to merge our households– namely, I will be moving in to his (now almost totally renovated) house (Stella, I totally owe you pictures!). There are many things I do not like about moving, especially when I have to do it twice in one year. I don’t like packing. […]

Admitted.

1. I am not a quitter. But when it comes to daily/weekly/monthly/yearly commitments, and when it comes to personal challenges, I think I’ve done my fair share. And so, it is with heavy heart, but not a small amount of relief, that I admit defeat when it comes to 365. I am […]

Hello earth…

… I seem to have dropped off the face of you!
I’ve been struggling with technology  lately.  I don’t know if it is because I spend a lot of time in front of the computer for “work,” or because I’ve been at conferences and having meetings and travelling and generally experiencing life, but — for some […]

ummm….

 
Two weeks?  Really?  I can’t believe it has been two weeks since I last posted.  That should give you some idea of how much not-better things have been since my last post.  I’ve been suffering from a pretty severe case of overwhelm.  Midterm grading and conference deadlines are not helping.  That said, I think that […]

… but i’ve been drowning a little.  I haven’t blogged in forever.  I’m behind on bloglines.  I’ve stopped commenting on the blogs I do manage to read.  I haven’t gotten more than 6 hours of sleep at night in over a week.  I’m falling into the pit of mid-semester.
I’m pulling myself out of it and […]
