the best imitation of myself

cleaning out my closet

So I found a clipboard w/some old letters to others and to myself from June - September 1997.  It's the closest thing to a blog that I have from my early twenties...the postings made me think about a lot of things, but from a research point of view: in the future, will people stumble across their blogs like I stumbled across these letters? I've stumbled across emails that I forgot about...but blogging is so deliberate, and permanently located/attached to a URL that it's hard to lose/forget.

google customize

google lets you customize your page now...i'm not sure how i feel about this...the google search page was/is so clean, uncluttered...i'm glad they give you the choice to keep it simple...but still...

the adventure continues

Back to the grindstone...summer class started tonight...should be interesting.  My prof does not want us to use our laptops during class, that will be a challenge for me, but a good challenge.  My patience will also be exercised AGAIN this semester...but that's ok too.  I had a nice week 'off' and I think I'm ready to tackle things again, especially after a wonderful massage up in TC, (go visit Sandy at Pavolva Salon, she was amazing!) and a fun time at Brad and Amanda's wedding.

Lots on my to do list...AERA call is out and I need to get my act together for that.  I also need to tighten up my practicum and send in UCRIHS! I need to pull stuff together for summer teaching. We need to clear out the upstairs for new carpet coming in on Monday.  I'm sure I'm forgetting things...but that looks like a full enough plate for now!

The grass has grown like CRAZY...it looks terrible.  *Add mow the lawn to list*

sweet relief?

I just sent in my final paper...spring semester 2005 is finally over.

procrastination station

would you like a cup of chai with that paper you're trying to write?

or maybe you would like to pick up a new hobby from this great blog! 

history lesson

here is my first blog ever...from a long time ago (ok, only 2 years ago, but that seems like a long time!)

Anna and Me

Or is it me and Anna?
