Sleeping in the Forest. I thought the earth remembered me, she took me back so tenderly, arranging her dark skirts, her pockets full of lichens and seeds. – Mary Oliver. In Need of an Epiphany. August 10, 2010 in academia. I also have a small research project that is related to the dissertation which I am suppose to be getting done for a regional conference in September…problem…the project proposal is stuck somewhere in the office for the protection of human subjects.

Uptown and to the right. On my way to tenure as a professor in New York's northernmost borough. Monday, August 30, 2010. Right now I am thinking I will head out shortly from this ridiculously short day in the office, because there's no A/C in my office and it's going to 95 today. (Talk about expediency with work orders, egh? I did much of what I wanted to do anyway, so I figure I could go home, get some lunch, and work on my class while in my air conditioned apartment. Friday, August 27, 2010. So the mov...

Plotting points through chaos. trying to connect the dots. There is a lull. Best one-sided skype conversation ever →. Sweet mrs. rose, my little old lady friend. April 6, 2010. I live pretty far away from my grannie. My little old lady friend here in Lovely City, however, isn’t doing so well. I’ve written a bit of the story of our friendship. And when she didn’t pick up again, I called the front desk and found out that she’d been brought to the hospital yesterday morning. This entry was posted in life.

75% administration, 25% research… my life on the alt-ac track. August 30, 2011. So, my horrible paper that I have submitted to four journals finally got a revise and resubmit this time, hooray! The trouble is, it is a very big revision that they have requested. Fine, fine, I’ll do it, even though it is extremely painful. So I’m considering asking for an extension for the first time in my life. Anybody have any experience doing that? Should I ask now? August 9, 2011. Job Search in Academe,. 8221; Many of ...

75% administration, 25% research… my life on the alt-ac track. Larr; Advanced faculty wrangling techniques. September 16, 2011. I understand and accept the usefulness of email “away” messages. But I must admit it drives me crazy when someone emails me, and I hit “reply” and send a prompt response, only to get their “away” message in return. When the away message says “I will return on September 9 and respond to your email as soon as possible”… and it’s September 15. September 19, 2011 at 11:29 am. Into t...
