My crazy travel schedule continues (not surprisingly!)... and it's been a busy, draining, one ( Read more... )

So as I sit here, enjoying a day of the Internets while suffering from a cold (it is progressing though, so I have hope that I'll be healthy again by the time I need to be... I really hope that will be the case in any event seeing as I have two papers to deliver/help deliver in Kitchener-Waterloo next week at Congress)... I am reminded by the fact ( Read more... )

Or at least the weather is cooperating. And not only have I taken my newest Wii game somewhat seriously (I'm doing 15 minute workouts at the moment, given that they don't have the clock running the whole time it's longer than 15 minutes... but whatever. I'm still testing the thing, making sure it's not too tough on my wrists among other things (my ( Read more... )

... is that I tend to sporadically do it to excess. If I were consistent this wouldn't be so big of a problem, nor would it be if I happened to not have bad wrists or random aches and pains or other silly health concerns that crop up without much cause, but damn it I like being physically active, physically fit, and I like doing stuff!

It seems I went from posting nearly daily to not posting at all to my blog for a bit. This is of course quite fine by me, but quite a lot has happened since my last posting, so I figured I'd type a bit about some of what has transpired ( Read more... )

There are a ton of different topics I'd like to type about right now, but I guess I'll just choose one for this particular posting.

And, so the fact that I was ( Read more... )

So life goes on. Nothing new in THAT regard really. My wrist is being all annoying today and the only thing I can think of as a cause this time is the transcription work that I was doing the other day (which is rather unfortunate as I need to do at least 40 times that much work on transcription alone. And that's in addition to all the other work ( Read more... )

... and it's not as if it has to be ballroom or anything in particular ( Read more... )

... since I'm terribly behind on things, very busy and the like, I've started actually cooking (or otherwise assembling from somewhat fresh and less pre-prepared ingredients) lunch. Mostly this stems from the fact that I get hungry around noon-ish and JD is oftentimes trying to sleep. This combined with the fact that I rather like my selection of ( Read more... )

As many of you well know, I tend to have a rather ridiculously busy travel schedule in the summer months. This summer is no exception of course and while travel does tend to get in the way of thesising and RA work and my part time job and, well all the trappings of home, I do rather enjoy it -- it would just be a lot easier if it were more spread ( Read more... )
