I’ll do a more complete recapping of my trip once I’m done with the trip, but here are a few, random, initial thoughts about Washington. This city is pretty cool. It’s got a cool vibe and there are so many freaking things to see here! As much as I’m super excited about the conference I’m […]
As I mentioned yesterday, I’m heading to Washington, DC. Currently sitting at the gate waiting for my red-eye flight. I like red-eye flights going east because I can sleep on the plane, then go about my day when I get there. By the time evening rolls around in Eastern time, because I only got a […]
I’m heading out on a trip to Washington, DC for a conference and since I’ll be there for a week, I decided that I’ll need to take my comically large suitcase and not just my carry-on, because I don’t travel light and I like shoes. The suitcase in question is the purple suitcase that I bought […]

And just like that, NaBloPoMo is over. Where did November go, exactly? And along a similar vein, where the hell did December come from??? So, yeah, I managed to write a blog posting every single day ((And only had to backdate twice – once because I was writing late and it got past midnight and […]
Tonight was the last class of the course I’m teaching this semester. Since it was my first time teaching this class, it was a crazy amount of work and I am so, so, so, so, so, so tired. But I have to say that I really enjoyed teaching this class! The material leant itself well to active learning […]
I put up the Christmas tree last night! It pretty much looks like last year, but if you look closely I have a few new inhabitants, including this S’More who is baking that my Aunty Eileen gave me for Christmas last year: This blue house I picked up while I was in St. John’s: And […]
