http://thestrenuousbriefness.blogspot.com/2011/08/bugs.html
Tuesday, August 2, 2011. I am, all things considered, a rather fierce woman. My mother, whose parting words to my sister and I every morning as we left for school, were "kick boy butt! Carefully cultivated me to say "pardon," to write thank-you notes, to aspire to financial independence, and, most importantly, to not take shit from anyone. A dutiful daughter, I have tried to embody these formidable guidelines for life. Although "pardon" has unfortunately been replaced by "what was that? I spent the last ...

Is his travel philosophy), so he prefers to stop at roadside places and grab a quick bite. On the way up, somewhere in Pennsylvania, he spotted a little family restaurant in an older, wood-sided building with a hand-painted sign, Finn's Family Restaurant. Would we stop at a roadside restaurant? Even more broadly, crossing the Canadian border its...

Wednesday, April 27, 2011. Manifesto in Defense of Collective Dependency as a Necessity for Survival and Transformation. WHEREAS much has been made of the dependency of the poor on government assistance, such as welfare, Medicaid, and public housing. Such dependency is used to malign those who seek services, or to imply that these services are unmerited, unearned, and undeserved. Those at the top are said to have it. Those at the bottom have simply not pulled at their bootstraps hard enough. The gap betw...

the.strenuous.briefness: You are not forgotten
http://thestrenuousbriefness.blogspot.com/2011/09/you-are-not-forgotten.html
Sunday, September 18, 2011. You are not forgotten. Dearest readers - and yes, I'm talking to all three of you - I fear you believe I have forgotten about you. Indeed, consumed with the most recent dissertation proposal draft, I have had to focus my attentions on churning that out rather than my weekly blog goal. In the meantime, I will leave you with this surprisingly well-done review. Of women in this fall's television line up, brought to you by Sunday's Washington Post. Not bad, you know, for a man.

Seeking balance in life. Archive November, 2011. Catching my breath – a list. A) It’s totally surreal to think a year ago I was stressing out about applying to business school. Surreal. There are some days I struggle to remember what life was like before I was a student. B)I’ve made it to our second quarter! I survived my first round of classes and finals. Like I suspected, the quant classes totally kicked my booty. C) A few notes for myself:. 8211; it’s okay not to do everything. TnT and Lil C.

Seeking balance in life. I’m usually pretty good about planning things. I mean, I would hope so, considering I was once paid to be a Special Events Director of a nonprofit. I can put together calendars, to-do lists, minute-by-minute schedules like no body’s business. (Wait, are these things worth bragging about? Or are these things that make me seem completely neurotic? Oh, it’s me. Catching my breath – a list →. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Enter your comment here. Address never made public). You are com...

Seeking balance in life. I lied about posting once a week. It’s totally June now, and I only posted once in May. But, to be fair, I have been keeping track of items on both my 30 in 30 list and Cali list, so I think those interactions totally count. I’m not going to lie. These were not easy to make. I got the recipe and technique from Steamy Kitchen. And seriously, if you’ve ever entertained any thoughts of making cake pops, you should start with this recipe. In case the picture isn’t cle...I tackled the...

Seeking balance in life. I’ve been awful, I know. I’ve neglected you for nearly a month now. A MONTH! Where did the time go? I have a bunch of excuses ready to explain my absence, but I totally understand if you don’t accept them. But, just in case you do–and, these are real, legit reasons, here! 8211;here are a few reasons why I haven’t written:. Once a week, at least. It’ll happen. Amazing. Some of my more recent food obsessions are:. Arugula. Who knew I could eat so much of it? Edamame. I eat thes...

Friday, December 16, 2011. If You Should Find Yourself Without a Job, Read This First. So, I haven't been posting much lately. This is the sad truth even though blogging is one of my favorite things. I can't blame it on lack of time, prolonged illness, or a broken thumb. I can't even blame it on depression. I haven't been depressed, dear readers. I have been unemployed. But the best part, of course, is that I actually got a job - this week, in fact - and thus concludes an epic race to beat the averages.
