Redirected
I've got an hour or so before my last final, The Evita Final, the final where I'll break open the champagne and cry for Argentina if I damn well please, dirty war be damned. I'm packing up my room, dividing books and folders ans glasswares into boxes and bags because I don't have enough boxes, all headed for an as of yet unknown destination. I ( Read more... ) -

One Down, Several Dozen to Go
I just wrapped up my first application for an apprenticed fellowship with The Stone Barns Center for Sustainable Agriculture in New York. Not the best paying gig in the world, but also not the worst, it's the first post-undergrad, career-related item I have sent out. It is simultaneously thrilling and unnerving ( Read more... ) -

To Be Back
I'm ending a three week stint in LA, which has been revitalizing. It's been a rush of running around -- I haven't done much in the way of lazing about, save to watch Jaime at Home -- and in the best ways possible. Going bar hopping with Eun Jee and Diana S., going to see the Copyright Murakami Exhibit and Grand Central Market with David Torello ( ( Read more... ) -
A Few Thoughts on Caucuses
1. I must say I am pleased that the more largely funded candidates of Clinton and Romney found themselves in a bit of a pit this evening. While Iowa is only one race, I find the power of persistance refreshing. That said, I am pleased with Edwards in second, and frightened ever so mildly by Huckabee in first ( Read more... ) -

Thoroughly delightful, I wish you all a happy and healthy new years. I certainly am enjoying the beginning of mine :-).

Cooking Zeal, Break Plans, and Walking
I've been on a bit of a cooking fit lately; I cured salmon Christmas eve, made butternut squash and sage soup yesterday, and today wrapped up making my first tarte tatin which came out almost perfectly. Something about the holidays makes me feel like Nigella Lawson, and it shows no signs of slowing down. I've been obsessively keeping watch over new ( Read more... ) -
But Baby It's Cold Outside
It's a quiet, windy Christmas Eve; with the parents in Phoenix, and Alexis having the car for the afternoon and evening, I'm sitting in a very quiet house, SciFi's Tin Man on as background noise, making soup and keeping very silent. Most everyone is with family right now, and while some calls have been made about, it looks like my Christmas eve is ( Read more... ) -
Fresh Air
It's raining outside. My 56-page thesis has been graded and in the history office. I just sent out my 24-page paper on the cultural historiography of the cafe-au-lait to my other professor. Outside of the upper-division version of the AP European History exam tomorrow, my work here is done until mid-January. I leave town either Friday or Saturday, ( Read more... )
