Qualia Coffee in Petworth. Qualia. Coffee. It all depends on whether or not their coffee is good enough to justify the trek, I guess. But they are a micro-roastery (yes I know that’s not a real word), so that’s encouraging, as is the excerpt from the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy article [...]
Two notable things happened today. The first is that I finally ordered an electric kettle on Amazon, so that very soon I will be able to make truly ridiculous quantities of coffee with my lovely 8-cup french press and burr grinder combo. Since my current water heating solution is a tiny, ancient microwave [...]
Yeah, I know it’s been a while, but I’m back. I think I’ve finally emerged from the existential black hole of the last couple of months (knock on wood), and despite a couple of start-of-the-semester road bumps in the last week, I’m feeling pretty good about my prospects for my last semester of college.
So I [...]
Bloomington continues to be great. I’ve more or less settled into a more or less regular routine of getting up more or less early, getting a bagel and coffee and reading all morning, although I’ve also migrated from Starbucks to a local place called Soma, trading smarmy jazz and other Starbucks-y musical stylings for [...]
I love saturday mornings spent sitting around the kitchen table in my pajama pants, having oatmeal and tea and listening to snippets of NPR and aimlessly surfing the internet. Special bonus if I happen to stumble upon something that is not only mildly interesting but to which I can relate. In those instances [...]
So I’m in Indiana now, for the summer. Forgot to mention that. I’m (kind of) hard at work on trying to find a project to start designing an experiment I may or may not run this summer, maybe about mora-timing in Japanese, or maybe about direct and mediated lexicon-access models. Hurrah!
I kept [...]
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 [...]
(in no particular order:)
Seeing my sister for the first time since she went away to college!
Seeing my family for the first time in almost three months
woodstoves, dogs, and baked goods
getting hurt again (grrrrr)
running with Jue and Tony and finding out that I’m sort of in okay shape
playing frisbee at broad-effin-way and finding out that my [...]
I found out via Brotherhood of the Bean that for the mere pittance of less than Eight American Dollars (plus shipping) you can have a real live coffee plant delivered right to your door. Given my love of growing plant inside and coffee, this seems like an ideal choice for me. There is [...]
Yes, it is November! I am a little batty due to not getting a lot of sleep recently and having a paper due tomorrow (of all days!)
This past weekend New England reasserted itself, complete with with cold, biting, steady rain on Sunday that caught us all off guard. Honestly, I’m glad to [...]
