First Impressions
Aaaaaah, this is my first day at Y&R! I’ve been here for about seven hours and I’ve spent the majority of my time waiting on tech support, but since I had absolutely no expectations other than ‘awesomeness’ going in, I’m pretty happy with everything. My boss is fantastic (and no, I’m not just saying that…

Cold Hearted Bitch?
I made it to Minneapolis! The trek involved seven hours on a bus, crying when I found out that I was 30lbs over the newly observed luggage restrictions, and making a new friend who agreed to put my textbooks and several pairs of my shoes in her suitcase and sit next to me. Seriously, girls…

Writers Block
My mind is never a quiet place. If I’m not working on something, I’m worrying abut something. So it’s confusing and frustrating when I can’t write anything. I’ll sit wherever I’m at, and face down the piece of paper. I’ll stare at it, glare at it, hell, I’ll probably even rip it up and throw…

Mother’s Day
My family is complicated and so are my thoughts about it, so I will just say this: Happy Mother’s Day to my mother and all my other mothers. Thanks for making me awesome, I certainly wouldn’t have gotten this far without you guys.

Chicago, IL
I made it! Finals are done, and after a weekend in Des Moines for Demicon, I have made my way to Chicago for a week with two families that I can’t get enough of. I’m with the McCartys, that I know I’ve mentioned before, until tomorrow and then I’m with Kennedys. I’ll post pictures later,…

VEDA Thougts
While I did recently take a bit of a break from VEDA do to real world priorities like homework, so far, I’ve really enjoyed the process. In fact, I’ve enjoyed it so much that I’ve joined the Vlogtastic Five and from now on, I’ll be doing two videos on Friday. You can find my regular…

Jumping on the bandwagon
Relatively soon you’ll see (if you’re looking) a vlog by me for VEDA. VEDA is explained in the video so you can either watch that or head on over to Google. Anyways, it is my latest attempt to consistently add to the clutter of the internet. I think video might be a better way to…

International Dilema
I have to admit to being of two minds about the many international Worldcon bids that have shown up for the next few years. It’s really awesome Worldcon is being pusehd to be something that actually happens all over the world instead of out of the US every four or five years, but on the…

Death of a morning
I had a CT scan scheduled for this morning. I figured I’d show up on time, lay down inside a giant magnet, get up, and get on with my day. Not so much. My schedule has now been pushed back by several hours and the contrast they gave me is making me feel…

Separation Anxiety
I haven’t spoken to one of my best friends in over a year and a half. And I mean really spoken to him. We’ve exchanged a few lines in the last year, but then he stopped responding and…well, I don’t know. Our relationship was all sorts of complicated, and at some points unhealthy from both…
