Lately, it seems that I'm fairly harried. I've been teaching lately, and since it's the dreaded U word (undergrads!) there's homework and grading involved. It's a nice bit of income, and it hasn't gone as horrible as I've thought it would. Though I've had one or two problem students. But between everything, and writing grants, and dealing with ( Read more... ) -
Can't get ahead
I've got some seriously bad Karma. I must have punched out the pope in a previous life. That's about the only explanation that makes sense at this point. Because the shit keeps coming ( Read more... ) -
The drama of the moose.
I'm some sort of idiot, for letting my friends talk me into going south for the Alaskan Beer and Barleywine Festival. I recognize that now, and I've come to terms with my own cognitive shortcomings. Anywhere else in the world, 400 miles is a bit far to go for a fun weekend, especially by car, but I drove on down to spend time with friends and try ( Read more... ) -
Brief update
I'm starting to get back to work (start new job next week). Luckily, I know how long this will last.
I sewed a new hat. This one is made of otter, and I've been wearing it around town. I've got a ton of compliments on it.
I pulled a Minto Flat moose permit. We scouted the north side of the area on Monday, but saw little moose sign. I snowshoed a ( Read more... ) -
T-2 days to vacation.
In that case, I'd turn the horse around and use it as a flamethrower.
That's from QI. I explain nooothing.
I'm feeling kind of worn down and generally blue - S.A.D. no doubt. I've found out my desk lamp that I've had for ages is not actually a desk-lamp, but a full spectrum light for S.A.D. That's helping a bit, but I'm looking forward to going to ( Read more... ) -
Biathlon
As part of the rehabilitation from the injury, I was encouraged to pick up something safe that would get me out and being active. After all, bone growth is stimulated by mechanical loading. I've decided that I want to try and learn how to ski, to get back into shape and to encourage the bone to finally heal already. I asked both my doctor, and my ( Read more... ) -

I think I might use some of my vacation time for its god given purpose - namely, vacating. Apparently, most people don't use vacation to work even more. How weird is that ( Read more... ) -
Reason 27 not to break your foot
I'm convinced that Physical Therapists are actually closeted torturers. I've been going x2 times a week to get the ol' foot back into fighting shape, and besides yelling at me for limping (it feels less bad.) they do this massage thing that is not at all comfortable, and have me do exercises that hurt more than the actual axe-in-the-foot bit. Today ( Read more... ) -
Addendum
So, having netflix, I have an oppertunity to finally see the end of Battlestar Galatica season 4. Heck, I even avoided spoilers all this time. Yet somehow, I can't be brought to give a damn about Battlestar.
Sound I bother? Did it end on an semi-okay note? Or should I just start with Dexter Season 2? -
long belated update
Oh, hi, is this thing on? Tap tap. Hello! It's been a while since I updated this, so it might be a good time to give a general update about what's been going on. Let's go back... 2 months? Sure ( Read more... )
