So I'd known the July 4 was this weekend, but as with many holiday sorts of things the implications of this hadn't really struck me. See, it's a holiday weekend. A i>three day weekend for many of us crazy Americans. This doesn't matter so much for me because, well, I'm pretty familiar with my schedule and when I get time off and what I can do ( Read more... )

I had intended to mention this in the last post, but in hindsight I suspect that giving this its own post may well be better anyway ( Read more... )

Many of you know that I took this roadtrip over the summer. I even talked about it in my last post. Which was right at three months ago.

Pursuant to insane amounts of traveling I have not checked my freinds list since that post. Now, I haven't looked, but I suspect that three months of summer posting from my peeps would involve getting back to ( Read more... )

I'll be on the road. Departure is bright and early at 6am. While my original itinerary called for me to head for Dallas/Fort Worth, it turns out that I won't be. Instead I'm going to be driving straight to Houston. Then a day in San Antonio, then on to Phoenix ( Read more... )

I'm pumped, and this is just a weekend trip. I'm sure you can imagine how giddy I am about the big summer roadtrip.

Anyway, I head to the airport in about an hour, and then fly to NYC. That means I'll be seeing some of you soon, which is awesome. I figured some of you might be interested, so I'm including a rough-sketch itinerary.

I mentioned my big summer roadtrip sometime last week. It's one I've been looking forward to for about two or three years, ever since I began pondering grad school. If you missed it the first time around, I have a map. It's actually been slightly updated. There's at least one more blue pin, and blue pins are definite visits ( Read more... )

Two part post, huzzah! Part one is short term, which is secret code for "I'm going to be in NYC this month, we should hang out!" Part two is long term, which is secret code for "I'm spending the entire summer being irresponsible, help me ( Read more... )
