Tuesday, November 29, 2011. 33 (and not quite 1/3rd). So I recently celebrated my 33rd birthday. And I love it! In a country with a much shorter life expectancy, it's no wonder that Peruvians would treasure life. Grey hairs? Bring 'em on. Slowly, anyway. Here I am celebrating my 28th birthday in Iquitos, Peru in 2006. Wednesday, November 09, 2011. So if you really did discover a time portal to 35 billion years ago, wouldn't that screw up the parallel time of the future? Which depicts the first possibilit...

Sunday, May 17, 2009. So it's been a while since my last post, and for that I am regretful, although I was kind of in the dumps for a bit there (oh ye dissertation of great pain and agony! So it's probably better that I didn't share. In the meantime, a few tidbits, here and there, of the past few months. Progress is being made, and I hope to defend on October 3. That's the new plan anyway. 4 Spring has sprung and it is just beautiful! 5 Did I mention that I want to defend in October? 6 I head to San Dieg...

Friday, October 14, 2011. She wished me luck and left the store. The next day I came into work and my boss said that there was a package that had been delivered that morning; it was a bag of books with a note that explained that these were some of her current favorites, including A Thousand Acres. By Jane Smiley. I sent her a thank you immediately and also sent her some postcards from Spain, but I never heard back. Kindness of strangers. And may I recommend an addictive website.

Thursday, February 26, 2009. Disneyland, California ca. 1985. Sunday, February 22, 2009. It really is some pretty great medicine. Friday, February 20, 2009. Well, enough bitching already. Let's talk about Octo-mommy. Psycho! Ok, I won't even bother going there. The irresponsible, selfish, nutcase of a crazy lady. 14 kids, no job. Sounds genius to me! Thursday, February 12, 2009. How do we distribute those benefits across the board, for rich and poor, abused and un-abused, rural and urban? Me and Tim Rice.

Monday, August 31, 2009. The drive back was tough because I was tired and I got lost in East Cleveland. Don't ever get lost in East Cleveland unless you're feeling like being severely threatened by big men with guns. It's so SO not fun. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Ethnographer. Iquitos Beer Drinker.

Sparky's Adventures: My body

Wednesday, March 07, 2012. So it's been a while.oops.). I am just stunningly appalled with this nation and its reaction to women as child-bearers. Yes, it is incumbent upon us, the hardier sex, to keep the world turning by having progeny. Because of this burden, and biological fact, having sexual intercourse with a man requires some care in order to not become a Duggar. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Ethnographer.

Friday, September 30, 2011. I had no idea how much I depend on Vitamin D for my happiness. This recent NY Times article. Stated that you only need about 15 minutes a day on your arms and legs from spring through fall to get your fair share to sustain you, but what happens in the winter? Or in cloudy cities like Cleveland where there is plenty of sun in the summer but on average fewer than 15 sunny days during the winter? Wednesday, September 28, 2011. Galieleo, Brecht, and Perry. Doubt it, but who knows?

Sparky's Adventures: Interwebs
http://sparkysamazonadventures.blogspot.com/2012/03/interwebs.html
Tuesday, March 13, 2012. Basically, it's extremely overwhelming, reduces my short term memory substantially, curbs my ability to focus for long periods of time, and frustrates me. I can't wrap my head around all that's out there, and I can't seem to prioritize between URGENT and PRIORITY and just INTERESTING. Am I the only nutcase who can't seem to navigate them without heart palpitations and brain overload? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Friday, December 30, 2011. New Year's resolutions are dumb. We never stick to them, and since time technically doesn't even move linearly, they're pointless anyway because there's not really going to be a new year but rather our silly marking of time in lives. How's that for fatalism? Regardless, here are my resolutions:. 1 Learn the Periodic Table. 2 Learn the Countries of the World (and their capitals). 3 Practice Yoga or Pilates at Home (at least twice a week). Or to read the New Yorker. I used to dra...
