Ye Olde Blogge

I have been up so late all week–and working so much–that I have made an executive decision to work from home. I am actually going to work, and I might do a few things around the house, but right now I’m still in my pj’s and will leisurely drink my coffee before taking a shower.…

Remember when I mentioned all that writing I had done? Well, I pieced everything together, and I have 26 pages. My little counter on here way, way down at the bottom says 26 pages. That’s from August. I did so much cutting that I pretty much ended up where I started. I had little sections…

This whole getting things done method is great! I mean, seriously. What have I done in the last week? Written a draft of a proposal ordered equipment (which I’d been putting off for some reason) made many doctor’s and dentist’s appointments that I’d been putting off joined the gym around the corner wrote 15 pages…

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…

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…

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 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…
