Got an e-mail late last night from a friend of mine in school in Iowa. He asked a million questions about life and how I’m doing and told me about his new med school life . . . but the one that got me was his asking if I was enjoying what I’m doing, or [...]

This darkness is too bright.
The passing seared my startled vision.
Unexpected.
Your soul shadowed -
My eyes open in darkness.
Windows to the soul. Scarred.
Burned by the image, haunting [...]

It’s fall. When I came in from work tonight the air smelled like it. I smile at the world. I love this season . . . I love September the most, but I love all of fall. One of the trees I pass under on my way to the bus stop in the morning is [...]

Today I am content.
I’m very frazzled, because I have realized that what is expected of me by my department is currently unattainable. I am content, because I realized that they are paying me to be what I am, and cannot require more of me.
I miss Tinsley today. Heya Andrea!
I’ve been thinking about you and [...]

My house is a national disaster area, if that is possible.
In fact, it reminds me a lot of junior year and Buffy . . . the last night in our old room (the last night I was there, anyway) she slept on the floor because there was no room on the bed. A little backwards, [...]

I had a discussion with a guy at work last night, who told me about his sister getting pregnant at the age of “nearly fourteen.” *sharp gasp*
I’m trying to remember what I was doing at nearly fourteen.
*That was the summer I saw Romeo and Juliet and I remember thinking what idiots lovers were.
*I was headed [...]

I found this song in my files today, that Cori introduced me to (okay, let’s be honest, without Cori, my music taste would be full of bands that horrify people like Kylee) and I was reminded how much I love this song. This song is so beautiful it makes me tear up.
(I won’t subject you [...]

Next week, when we K. women do our lecture series around the midwest (yes, Emy will be joining us too) you should come. Maybe we’ll charge admission [...]

I don’t feel like posting reality here tonight. So . . . as a useful diversion:
Here is something you all would like to see.
And now that you’re feeling skeptical about Coral linkage, I will switch tacks again to bring you some lyrics for a new favorite of mine. It seemed appropriate.
I held your hand so [...]
Nakiru is a Karamajong name meaning "rain." My real name was confusing, so to replace it, the old woman looked out from under the hut and observed the coming rain, and named me. "Nakiru." The irony was when they named my sister "Nakolong" - "sunshine."
