Skeptical of Digital Humanities
Read more: Skeptical of Digital HumanitiesOkay, I’m just going to throw this out there. I’m ambivalent about digital humanities. I know what you’re thinking–that as a technologist and a humanist, I’m the last person on earth who should be skeptical about such things. But the more I read in blogs and elsewhere, the more kind of creeped out I get.…

Not really working yet
Read more: Not really working yetSo, I’m not really doing anything one might categorize as “work” yet. Which is okay since I hadn’t planned on doing anything in that category until say, December-ish. I am reading. I hope to start doing some writing next week. Mostly I’m trying to get my health back and my house into maintenance mode (rather…

Headaches gone for now
Read more: Headaches gone for nowNot that I want to turn this into a health blog, but just FYI, the headaches have gone for now.

Last night, we were awakened at 3:00 a.m. to a horn honking, constant, like someone had fallen on…

I have had a headache basically all week. It’s completely annoying. And yes, I’m going to have it looked at. I know Friday cat blogging is old skool, but it’s a nice way to end…

Why Productivity is Bad (Sometimes)
Read more: Why Productivity is Bad (Sometimes)A couple of months ago, I pretty much quit looking at my to-do list. I quit putting new things on it and I just kind of went with the flow. Although I still think the GTD system that I used has some really good points, I think there are a lot of aspects to the…

It was like this until 9:00 a.m. People brought books and newspapers, prepared to wait it out. We had a steady stream with at least 10 people in line until after noon. By 2:00, we realized about…

Today is the day
Read more: Today is the dayEverything could change. If Obama wins, my biggest hope is that Obama can truly bring the country together. I really do think that I have a lot in common with my Republican neighbors. It’s really a rare few that I disagree with completely. I want for the disagreements I may have to be minor, inconsequential.…
