Dudes, so far this year has been good. I struggled last month with a strong desire to move because that's just what I do in the spring because I haven't lived anywhere for longer than 8 months straight since high school, but I think I can do it. I think I can live in the same place for over a year and wait for my money to build up and loans to be ( Read more... )

So, I got my masters in museum studies, right? A field that is challenging, competitive, and notoriously underpaid.  A field for which you kind of need a related masters degree to get a full-time position at all. That's why I did what I did for the past two years.  Well ( Read more... )

This may be the longest I've gone without updating this thing at all. Probably because: grad school eats your life. The grad school I went to in particular not only did that but did so in a pretty disrespectful, sanity-breaking way. Especially the last semester.  But also because I forgot about it. But maybe I'll return, because this is one of the ( Read more... )

One of the reasons I've been so quiet on here, other than grad school, is that when I do remember to write something online, it's usually for a different blog, just about gender/sexuality stuff. Like many things on the Internet, no one reads it except me. And I think that's okay. It's still too rough, too personal for me to want to share it with ( Read more... )

The special science/math/whatever high school on the ground level of my workplace started classes yesterday. I was very surprised at how early it was, but beyond that, I also felt just plain weird. I've been working there for over a year, but only when the students returned did I really feel it. It's been A YEAR. I have never worked that long that ( Read more... )

Hey! So much has happened lately that I didn't even remember this was around to hold my life's events. Many of the things I wanted are real now, and that's pretty cool. I live in the house I wanted to live in, have way more hangouts, a bit less work, a job that isn't terrible, and a hazy future. That last one isn't exactly my cup of tea, but things ( Read more... )

This week has a lot going on that I may or may not elaborate upon, but the important stuff is ( Read more... )

Things are things. Plan on studying dog bones for my thesis. Can't resist dead things, I guess. Going to a conference to man a poster this weekend. Not doing enough hw. Eating chili. Making cookies. Remembering to call my sister on her birthday. Got paid, and all the money disappeared instantly into rent, bills, and credit card payments. Went ( Read more... )

Now that my life is up and going, there's really not much to talk about. Watch as I prove myself on in a stream-of-consciousness report ( Read more... )
