Blog? Hmmmm. I feel like it’s sitting here on the Internet, every now and then throwing me an accusing glare. It occurred to me the other day that one reason I’m no longer updating is that I’ve been more focused on that thing over on the side bar – getting a life. One away from [...]

Another boring post about health stuff
Posted in general life on August 11, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Turns out I have migraines. Turns out I have ‘complicated migraines’, or, migraines with aura, or, migraines with neurological symptoms. A clear MRI and neurologist’s opinion confirmed this last week.
Which is to say, the left side of my face goes partially numb – it often feels slightly bizarre. Sometimes my left forearm/hand, too. The tip [...]
Land of Milk and Honey – Two Years Later
Posted in Uncategorized on June 18, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
Almost two years after moving to this city, I still feel more or less ambivalent about living here (hah – notice how I say ‘more or less’? I can’t even commit to feeling ambivalent about it!). I’ve done a lot, Cam’s done a lot, we’ve both grown professionally and personally. For example (more for my [...]
Cuba Cuba

We went to Cuba! A bonafide holiday, with no relatives, no itinerary, no obligations. I love y’all in Home City, but it gets a little tiresome to spend all our non-work time there (most holidays longer than a long weekend, anyway).
Because we’re not exactly loaded, and had limited time, we booked an all-inclusive. Which I [...]

The cyst is gone!
Harmless cyst,
Little cyst.
Ding Dong,
The ovarian cyst is gone!
Ahem.
Went to the gyno this morning. The cyst has ‘resolved itself’. The hormones were normal. So guess what else?
Ding Dong,
the IUD is gone!
Copper T,
Not for me!
Ding Dong,
the IUD is gone!
Now my poor little uterus has a ‘month of rest’, while I determine whether or not [...]
It’s a Christmas Miracle!
Posted in Uncategorized on December 29, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Those who know me know that I have a habit of latching on to various turns of phrase and repeating them ad nauseum. Kind of like a 4-year-old. 3-year-old? Whatever. For the past week and a bit, I’ve been proclaiming things Christmas Miracles. I’m an agnostic with strong atheist leanings, remember, so bear this in [...]
Where I Was

At a friend’s place, enjoying her technology. She recorded it to her hard drive. I took a less techno-savvy route:
I love the expression on the girl’s face in the first picture – if you click on it, it’ll load a larger version.
And yes, those are Obama and Biden ‘masks’ around the TV.
We also ate nauseating, [...]
Rich Galas

I don’t usually blog about current events or politics. I feel underqualified to make the elegant arguments that I enjoy reading and thinking about. I’m also usually too lazy to bother crafting a considered position on this here blog.
So let me keep this short.
Our “leader’s” fumbling, now infamous statement about artists who attend ‘rich galas’ [...]
Sleepy Summer.
Posted in Uncategorized on August 6, 2008 | 2 Comments »
The current thrills in my life are as follows:
Good weekend weather.
Swimming in a clean lake 8 times over 2 days.
Weekends spent making and eating food with old friends, either in my apartment or elsewhere.
Eating a salad with my own radicchio as a base, topped with local tomatoes (see pic below).
Having fake chicken nuggets on the [...]
Summer is Busy

Too busy to tend to this silly blog, anyway.
One crucial update, though: I’m no longer working under a cloud of grumpiness. I’m thinking that the grumpy cloud was a result of simply not having enough to do. Sure, it gave me time to read tons of resources and start building a network… but I hate [...]
