So as I sit here, enjoying a day of the Internets while suffering from a cold (it is progressing though, so I have hope that I'll be healthy again by the time I need to be… I really hope that will be the case in any event seeing as I have two papers to deliver/help… Continue reading Travel and geekery abounds!

… is often a fun hobby for me, realistically. This year however, money is a little bit tighter than previously (partially as I live alone, and partially because being a grad student isn't as lucrative as it could otherwise be… but also because travel is expensive and I have to pay for everything upfront while… Continue reading Money management…

Not that it's not already started, but the meat of the conference season for me has really gotten near! And not a day passes without some sort of email referencing some sort of conference or convention or something in it. And I look forward to all the busy-ness: it won't give me the opportunity to… Continue reading The Conference season approaches… ack!

Or at least the weather is cooperating. And not only have I taken my newest Wii game somewhat seriously (I'm doing 15 minute workouts at the moment, given that they don't have the clock running the whole time it's longer than 15 minutes… but whatever. I'm still testing the thing, making sure it's not too… Continue reading And it's well… summer!

So I procrastinate. A lot. In fact this procrastination could be perceived as detrimental or even just a negative effect. But, I don't always deem it as such.

Not entirely sure why (though there are some reasons I could blame, partially good food, partially having a nap this afternoon, partially having a good exercise session this morning… but there are many other potential causes too). And being in a really good mood has gotten me thinking… Continue reading Dreams, hopes, wishes…

… is that I tend to sporadically do it to excess. If I were consistent this wouldn't be so big of a problem, nor would it be if I happened to not have bad wrists or random aches and pains or other silly health concerns that crop up without much cause, but damn it I… Continue reading The problem with physical activity…

It seems I went from posting nearly daily to not posting at all to my blog for a bit. This is of course quite fine by me, but quite a lot has happened since my last posting, so I figured I'd type a bit about some of what has transpired. I helped host perhaps the… Continue reading Life gets busy at times…

As winter turns to spring (April showers anyway), I'm itching to get out there and be more active. But lately (yesterday in particular) I've been so so tired. No particular reason — I've been semi-active (I could do more than walk a bunch, run after busses, lift my very light weights (I need heavier ones,… Continue reading So tired lately…
