not really here
You know the feeling like you shouldn't really be awake? It's not a lack of sleep, though often associated with a hang over (come on body - I had two drinks over 6 hours, why do I feel weak and wonky?) and dark grey weather. I am glad I did get up and go to a talk this morning because I learned some cool stuff, but now I want to day to pass quickly ( Read more... ) -
Happily procrastinating
This weekend was spent on more weekendly pursuits than I have allowed for the last few weeks, which has been lovely. Having some scrisper weather is wonderful, and if it is warm through the day and then cool at night, I am happier still. I still need to do something like find a fall jacket - last year's attempt to survive only in sweaters and ( Read more... ) -
Sore into the saddle
I have to say I do not recommend breaking up your educational path all that much. I am having to relearn most of I learned 2-4 years ago because I am finally taking the successive materials. In such traditional academic programs like Math and Music theory, where you are being trained more in depth than learning a wide range of ideas, it makes a ( Read more... ) -
physical limites
While this summer has been awesome, this week hasn't been the productive flurry i wanted it to be, and I may have finally put my finger on the main reason: musculature ( Read more... ) -
Out and in
I have now officially moved to a new appartment. I no longer have access to le Nouveau Colisee, but for many reasons, I am not sad to be gone from it. Though it was convenient and sufficient for my purposes, my new appartement has a lot more potential and most importantly space ( Read more... ) -

To Twilight
Today, after fourteen fortunate years, Twilight the cat passed away. Out of consideration for her quality of life, she was let go instead of being forced through difficult and long term medical attention. Though her family is mostly far away, she did spend her last moments with one who has been with her since kittenhood, and loved her dearly ( Read more... ) -
Times, they are a' changin'
In the last couple of months, my life has changed a lot, and I really like where it is going. I am quite happy to exibit the big social and occupational shifts with the superficial indulgences of cuting and colouring my hair. While I still sport two tones, and have enough head fur to fram my face, It's now croped comfortably close, and blue/ ( Read more... ) -
Wiggling in the cocoon
I didn't mean to take yesterday off - it kind of just happened. Instead of working on by-laws and transition material, I took a day to rearrange my appartment, my mind, and my life. The fresh perspective is really quite nice, with the exception of my largest plant deciding to lean over and block the hall way ( Read more... ) -
do it again, with feeling
It's springtime: snow melting, rain falling, mud squalching and that cliche but wonderful romance budding. Yes, that's right folks, this hard hearted opportunist is letting her focus accumulate at one point, or rather one person. Between the bouts of being sickeningly cute together and feeling sick about the cuteness, there have been plenty enough ( Read more... )
