InBetween: May 2014
http://survivingacademia.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 30, 2014. The next step on that path was flying aross the country to visit family with M. We did that too from pretty early on, and it was always just me and M, her daddy rarely to never travels with us for some reason or another. M and I have our routines, our rhythm, our own language, our own groove. I read her very well. But, this kind of thing happens every single time. And I mean it. Every. Single. Time. Can I say it? Oof It'll work out somehow. Luckily this is a culture that loves k...

InBetween: January 2015
http://survivingacademia.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 20, 2015. Do you know someone who? I have noticed a rise in the number of a particular type of request that I find odd. Well, it isn't really the request itself that is weird, but how it is phrased. It goes like this. SCENARIO 1 * * * *. Dear Prof. InB,. I am looking for an outside member for my dissertation committee, someone preferably who does *. Exactly what I do. Could you please recommend someone in your department who would be able to help me? All my best,. Dear Prof. InB,. I apol...

as of yesterday | lines ever more unclear
https://thefrogprincess.wordpress.com/2011/11/30/as-of-yesterday
Lines ever more unclear. I became Dr. Thefrogprincess, PhD. Will say more later, but for now, I offer this: my defense was everything I wanted graduate school to be. Intellectually rigorous while simultaneously generous and affirming. On both counts, grad school was a fail. 5 Responses to “as of yesterday”. Feed for this Entry. On December 1, 2011. On December 3, 2011. Whooohoo. I’m glad that your defence went how you wanted it to go but I’m sorry to hear about gradschool.😦. On December 4, 2011.

Mindful-Mumblings: August 2009
http://mamabeek-et-al.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, August 25, 2009. There's no Telling Where the Money Went. Saturday, August 22, 2009. Well my sister's tests were done and nothing looked overtly wrong to have caused her symptoms. No masses, which is the biggest thing. They did find a hiatal hernia, but she hasn't been having symptoms from that, so it must be quite mild. Once the results of her labs and biopsies come in we'll hopefully have an answer. So it's halfway good news and halfway hurry up and wait. Wish we could afford a housekeeper....

Mindful-Mumblings: WHERE have I been?
http://mamabeek-et-al.blogspot.com/2011/05/where-have-i-been.html
Wednesday, May 04, 2011. WHERE have I been? Wow so much has happened, and then again, not so much after all. Facebook has taken over and I find I just don't feel the need to come here much. Probably I will delete this site in time, but for now I'll update and poke around to see what everyone else is doing! I finished my internship and am awaiting the last edits on my dissertation. Defense date is set and graduation is the second week in June. W00T! Im glad to see you have a new post! I have no idea if th...

Mindful-Mumblings: Spring is Sprung!
http://mamabeek-et-al.blogspot.com/2010/03/spring-is-sprung.html
Monday, March 29, 2010. And the grass is riz and riz and riz despite how often we cut it! But what a beautiful spring it is here. Shockingly green and the creek running consistently, which it hasn't for several years now. My allergies are insane, but the meds are at least marginally managing them, so it's bearable so far. Been such a long time since I've updated here! I've been trying to figure out what I want to do with this blog, but haven't really settled on anything new or different. Weve both been h...

InBetween: February 2014
http://survivingacademia.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 18, 2014. Gotten an email that reads,. Dear Prof Q,. Your research admin person. This morning, I did. Imagine me going fucking ballistic. Now, multiply that by 10. That was my day. It is going to be absurd. But the worst part of it? I had set that time aside to exercise. I have been really getting into my exercise lately and it is my one rock, the one thing in my life over which I have control. I love that control. I love the exercise. As is a slimmer, stronger bum. X is very patient an...

InBetween: June 2014
http://survivingacademia.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 17, 2014. I wanted to share an observation on the culture of kids. M does not appreciate either of these things. In fact, she tends to run when she sees some people coming, knowing what is in store for her. M is doing amazingly well with all of the differences, but she definitely finds peace and comfort in her dollies. When people attempt to grab them out of her hands, she is seriously distraught, not amused. And the picking up thing? Oh man, she hates that. We are off to France at the end ...

InBetween: true confession
http://survivingacademia.blogspot.com/2014/11/true-confession.html
Wednesday, November 5, 2014. I don't know why I feel compelled to share this, but here you go. I don't have a dishwasher as my kitchen (and house) are too small. I kind of like hand washing dishes, except for silverware. I loathe washing silverware. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Did I do the wrong thing? My blog sisters and then some. Grumpy rumblings of the half-tenured. Here’s Me Gynosplaining My Latest NYT Piece. My words fly up, my thoughts remain below. It is NOT junk.

Mindful-Mumblings: November 2009
http://mamabeek-et-al.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 27, 2009. Happy to be Home. We had a great Thanksgiving dinner by the sea, and then today we had a lovely brunch for our 22nd anniversary. It's cold and stormy out today, but I don't mind. We SOOOO need rain, I'm keeping everything crossed for it. And my birds are so fun. They make it hard to get anything done, but since they've been in (nasty cold wind) today, I've been playing "getchoo getchoo" and "gimme that thing! With my two parrots all day. They're such little clowns. I am a stude...
