protein post
All the dancing and running I'm doing is catching up to me - I'm craving mad amounts of protein these days. Problem is, I don't like eating animals that often. I continue to believe that humans do not need to eat animals for our survival, although it is frequently convenient to do so.

crazy busy: general update
I'm out of my apartment in less than a month, and have been treating moving like a full-time job. I've gotten rid of a lot of clothing and books, and I reserved a storage unit for my stuff while I'm in Estonia... these tasks, while not very demanding, are still really taxing on my emotional resources.

feeling better + good news
This allergy/sinus/whatever thing is finally started to go away; today's the first day I woke up without pain in my throat, though my head's still a bit stuffy.

oh, and some brief India tidbits
A post about my India trip has gone up at Ye Olde Sex Blog.
I also have a fairly ranty post about inaccurate misconceptions about non-monogamy. And one about when science gets it wrong. -
tired but in a good way
I'm exhausted from the conference, but ICFA was amazing and I intend to make a post but first there's unpacking and sleeping and working on another conference paper and figuring out how I am actually going to sit down and begin writing my dissertation! -
back from India.
I've returned, and triumphed over jet-lag (which took days, ugh). I'm scrambling to organize my living space and prepare for ICFA and deal with things that have happened in my absence, so it'll be a while until I manage to upload some pics and write some travel narratives ( Read more... ) -
awesome things afoot!
I have some internet access here in Chennai, so I thought I'd post a brief update ( Read more... )
