Today, while taking a short break from writing, I came across this article about how an increasing number of young professionals are shying away from corporate careers and becoming organic farmers. It kinda made me wish I was doing something outdoors, instead of staying cooped up in my flat reading articles and writing papers. Oh [...]

My cousin Elizabeth had her baby today! Little Tyler is 7

cousin, but after doing some research [...]

Today after running various errands on campus, I was on my way home loaded down with groceries when I noticed a throng of people crowded around a black limo. It was a pretty funny sight, and I wish I’d had my camera on me. Loads of people on both sides of the street were stopped, [...]

So I have officially completed all my coursework for my master’s – hard to believe! Now it’s time to gear up for the craziness of writing term papers. At least this time I won’t be out of the country for two weeks, so it won’t be as stressful.
I spent most of today doing research in [...]
Sickness, and recovering
Posted in Anthro/Development, Random on March 9, 2006 | Leave a Comment »
Ah, a lot has happened since my last post! I was very, very sick for a few days, for one thing. I rarely get physically upset-stomach sick, but I definitely did late last week. It was about three days before my stomach could handle food (other than Sprite and broth-like soup), which meant that Thad [...]
