Here's what's going on:
-I am writing my MA thesis on: reconfiguring a connection between ontology and politics using abject voices as limit case (studies).
-I like Erik's idea to keep a tab on "miles run" per year. Here's my contribution: 30. It's a slow start, but I'm working on it. I can run about 3 miles/x3 days/week. I'm 19.7 pounds away from having lost 100 lbs (since being at my heaviest weight). We're running a 5k in Chicago in October (hopefully).
-M's grandfather is dying and I'm driving down to Urbana/Danville in the morning. Mom: I'll call you if something happens.
-Presenting MA paper at a conference at Simon Fraser in Vancouver BC in May, defending a week later. Transitioning into the PhD
-Turned 30 March 11
-Taught four classes today (two of my own, two of M's) and had a good experience with students. I love teaching!
-Bought new shoes-Asics Cumulus 9. I can't believe I ever ran in crappy shoes.
Things are good--moving fast. Too fast, sometimes. Hope to have this degree in 5 more years.
Then what?
