Tonight was the faculty-student recruitment dinner for incoming recruits to my program.  I am not too into the social things, the small talk…but my friends would be there and I decided to go with David.  We had a pretty good time, a little awkward, and I was way overdressed…but I’m still glad I went.  Tomorrow is the student only recruitment “dinner” (aka party)…but I have to work very far away, pretty late…so I may not make it.  Fridays always wipe me... more

I have finished my monster of a paper, and prepared for both of my presentations.  So this morning is a short breather before I go off to class and Presentation #1.  I’ve got one more, much shorter, paper to write.  And then…not technically done…but pretty much! Jo and I just went out in the pouring rain.  We jogged and she did it all tip-toey.  Better go get ready.  Oh, good residence news may be coming soon…  Read More →

Not too much time to post tonight.  This preview picture is a little outdated–but this is what I’ve been up to.  The end of Winter quarter is nearing, and presentations and papers are all coming at me.  I had a great presentation yesterday, and got a large chunk of one of my papers done last night and today.  But it’s been busy…my days have definitely required two doses of caffeine.  Read More →

I spent last weekend in L.A.  Technically Logan-sitting, I fit a ton of fun in with some of my favorite people.  Unfortunately, Mandi and my mom were in Amesbury, so I didn’t get to see them…but I had an activity-filled weekend, anyway. I got in very late Friday night, after a horrible Super Shuttle experience which kept me driving around LAX for an hour after midnight.  On Saturday, I got my nails done (I only try to fit in the very important things), and then had some relaxation... more

I just made a quick account on the site, yes it is free, although I dont watch a lot of TV this idea is a pretty good one.  There is quite a bit of content including some older stuff.  You may not be able to get full seasons yet but its perfect for watching recent episodes you may have missed or forgotten to TiVo.  Excellent for when on the road and dont have access to a TV but maybe you have a laptop and a WiFi connection.  Video quality is excellent and there are even some HD videos... more

I have been so exhausted for about a week!  I thought that I was “crashing” from my stressful midterm that I studied for for many, many, many hours.  It was immediately after that that I became a zombie!  I was nearly useless for a whole week.  Making myself get off of my butt helped a bit, but still I felt exhausted. Then, I went to Ciocolat with my friend, Maciel.  This is a chocolate/pastry/brunch/coffee/tea shop in downtown Davis.  Since I was sick a few weeks ago and missed... more
