  • Alternate endings

    One other thing that I thought about at my reunion was the way that things could have ended up so differently. Listening to people’s paths through life, most of which weren’t straight and direct, I thought of how even just a slightly different choice here or there would have landed them in a completely different…

  • Readjusting

    After a trip away from the family, there’s always a readjustment period. I always am aware of this on the trip back and try to prepare, to think about what will need to be done at home, how to reinsert myself back into the rhythms of the household. I am never resentful of having to…

  • Where are all the women?

    How many blog posts can I title this way? I’ve been thinking over the last day, since my last post, about the fact that most of the women I met from my class were staying at home with children. I wasn’t so much disappointed with them as with the world we live in which gives…

  • In which I realize I’m not 20

    Two days of activities, flitting from bar to bar, staying out way too late, drinking too much, and eating unhealthy food have left me exhausted. Of course, it was all extraordinarily fun. One of the things that I’ve enjoyed most is talking to people who weren’t “popular” or “successful” in college. In most cases, they…

  • Reunion day 1

    I met up with my blogger friend and we had a blast. Ate and talked. Funny how you don’t really talk about blogging that much. We talked about everything. It was so fun. A friend of mine retrieved me later and we sat at his house and had a drink before the official activities began.…

  • Blogging offline

    Blogging offline from the airport I had plans to shop at the airport because there are some cool shops in the airport, but then, when I got here, I remembered that I was in the crappy wing of the airport. I guess that’s what I get for flying cheap. I tried to grab some breakfast…

  • Reunion songs

    Blogging may be light over the next few days as I head off to my reunion. A small hitch has developed in my plan to avoid my mother. I just found out my aunt (’60) is going to be attending her reunion. Yikes! Oh good lord, I just checked and she’s the organizer for the…

  • From the office front

    So, I’ve pretty much finalized the GTD process. So far, I really, really like it. I haven’t had more than an hour here and there so the things I’ve worked on have primarily been calls/email and little things. I think where this might really pay off is for bigger projects. I’m using the GTD tiddlywiki…
