Well I’m better. I’m still very stiff and sore and I’m pretty sure my 93-year-old grandma (who has trouble with her legs) walks faster than I do right now, but I have been on a steady diet of painkillers and muscle relaxers since Monday (I went to the doctor and got fabulous prescriptions, y’all) […]

Hi.
So, what have I been up to? Blogging on paper, for one thing. (I have a very important question over there that needs answering.) I predict that it will become the new black in the blogging world. But I’ve always been a trendsetter that way… I mean, check out this picture of […]

I’ll finish writing about my bedroom remodeling adventures in the other post, because that is where those adventures belong, and I assure you, there are more adventures in store. It was just supposed to be a quick paint job, and as it stands right now, I am never ever getting my mattress out of […]

Life always makes more sense when I have a project, so I decided to paint my bedroom. And now that I have mostly finished unpacking everything, it was really time to pack it all back up and move it, along with all my furniture, into the hallway.

Thursday night my friend (who is my oldest friend in the world — I have known her since I was 2 and she was 1) and I moved the last of my stuff out of my house in Ann Arbor and had dinner and talked and talked and talked, which is something that we do. […]

Note: I don’t have time for a real post today because my dog is sick and absurdly clingy, I’m moving again, I’m sorting out some job business and I have to work my way through mountains of laundry. Seriously. Mountains. I sorted it and it looked like the Alps. So you […]

Dear My Brain,
Hi. I know that I have put you through a lot lately, and I apologize, but hey, aren’t we both better for it? I think so. I really do. But we need to talk. Or, actually, you just need to listen to a few things, okay? Okay. […]

I keep trying to write something today but then I stop. It’s not that I’m trying to write anything specific — I’ve tossed around some paragraphs about how I’ve always wanted to work in a gas station just so that I can say “So, back when I was selling lotto tickets at the gas […]

Billy is an excellent name for a post. Wouldn’t you agree?
Anyway, good afternoon. I’m sitting here for a minute, enjoying an absolutely massive glass of iced tea and thinking about all the stuff I’ve gotten done today:
– Sent some e-mails to people at what may be my master’s program.
– Walked my dog until […]

Above we have the documentary self-portrait I took when I got home after I finished my Arabic final. Dudes. I don’t have Arabic class anymore. I know this may not seem as monumental to you as it does to me, but then I got back to my house and sat down and […]
