Far from dead (but you wouldn't know it to look at my LJ)...
Have maybe officially decided to forget keeping up with the reading list. If I actually want to keep track of what I've read, I'll start using that Goodreads account I've had forever ( Read more... ) -
So excited!
I applied for that job I was debating over. I still have time to debate, as I have a couple weeks at least until they make a decision ( Read more... ) -
Happy death day
In other news, I am a prophet. My last post of crazy was nearly 2 months ago. I predicted the trend of crazy would continue. And it has. Don't worry; you'll only get a few of the highlights, as I really can't remember much of anything more, at this point ( Read more... ) -

(Untitled)

A year of catching up
This year blew last year out of the water. Not difficult, I'll admit. 2011 did a lot of making up for 2010 while I struggled to get my head on straight, reclaim my life, and deal with things. I talk about Dad because he was so formative of my life, and his death doesn't mean I should avoid those anecdotes ( Read more... ) -
What happened to last month???
I think I had an entry I meant to post last month and never did. Oh, well. November was a month of transcribing, editing, and writing. And Thanksgiving. We had a fantastic Turkey Day, and it sounded like the rest of you did, as well. The almost-foot of snow on the ground for the holiday has long since melted, and now I'm not sure what the season is ( Read more... ) -
Tabs to close and happiness to share
Lately, life has thrown a lot of suck at people I love, and I'm totally not cool with that. I feel almost guilty that things are going well for me (at the moment, anyway). But I have happy to share and want to send some of that positivity out ( Read more... )
