Okay okay, I know it’s been a while, but first I was writing my thesis, and then being plied with alcohol and mixed emotions as a future alumnus of a wealthy institution of higher education, and finally reverting to my natural, hermit-y state, as per the instructions of not one but two trashy magazines’ horoscopes. [...]

I know, it’s hard to believe.  After a 48+ hour traveling odyssey beginning on friday evening, of which more than half was spent aboard some manner of moving vehicle, I am finally home.  I’m still reeling from all the traveling and the jetlag and the aftershocks of teh dysentery (made worse by all the imodium [...]

In what is becoming a disturbingly regular trend I feel must begin this post by apologizing for being such a loser blogger. I’ve had half a dozen ideas kicking around for the last month or so, about the end of the semester, moving, saying goodbye to Williams friends, the various unexpected paths my friends from [...]

I was quite surprised and delighted to find that, upon waking up this morning, I was suddenly really looking forward to getting back to school: GQ, classes, friends, and so on and so forth. In the mean time, I’m glad I decided to wait until Sunday to leave, and am quite enjoying my last few [...]

I am back on campus, after hopping on the bus on Sunday after Mara’s graduation brunch (she’s coming to Williams!  yay Bangor!), riding all day, and arriving in Pittsfield in the evening, where Jared, Erin and Noe picked me up, since Jared (a regular on the Bangor<–>Williams bus) warned me that the two hour wait [...]

I went to Borders yesterday with Mom and Jeff to pick out a birthday gift for my dad, and, somewhat predictably, found myself spending more time pulling books off the shelf that I was interested in than anything else. High on the list of things I’d like to read soon are Guns, Germs, and Steel [...]

About a week ago I had another transcendent, remembering-why-I-love-it moment. For all intents and purposes, as of the end of the semester I’d stopped playing Ultimate for almost a year. Sure, I went to the BUFO vs. squash scrimmage a month ago, and played a few points in one of the games at Kraftees, but [...]

So, the big news is that a) the semester-from-hell is over, b) I am no longer a sophomore, and c) I’ve been home for two weeks, sitting on my ass, playing mario sunshine and baking tons of bread. Mom and the bro are still in school, and my sister is commuting to work for a [...]

Minnesota! I am happily ensconsed in my sister’s dorm room at lovely Macalester College, in balmy, tropical St. Paul, Minnesota. The last two and a half days consisted of bumming around Cambridge, catching up with Boston friends, and playing Super Smash Bros. with Jue and company. Before that was a nice, low-key celebration of my [...]

  Today was wonderful! Act I consisted of sleeping in, taking a loong time to get out of bed, noticing that it was snowing outside (!), having yogurt and homemade granola for breakfast, and playing with the beaurot for a little bit. Then I grabbed some grab’n’go and took off for Jiminy Peak with the [...]
