AcadeMama: January 2012
http://academama.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Thursday, January 26, 2012. Things I'd Love To Do. Lots of people have a "lotto list," alist of things they'd do if they won the lottery. I don't play the lotto, so my version is a list of things I'd do if I just had a full-time job (even if I had to save up a while). 2 Have a spa day. Like, the whole. entire. day. Massage, facial, hair, pedicure, the works. 3 Go to more museums in nearby New England Town. 4 Eat at a decent restaurant once a week with my family. 8 Move forward with kitchen renovations.

AcadeMama: November 2011
http://academama.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 29, 2011. A Post Wherein I Bitch.a Lot. To add to this, I got my teaching assignment for next fall, and I still only have two fucking courses, and they're both comp classes! I'm not asking for a BFF or anything, I just want someone I can grab a drink or lunch with occasionally. Someone to kvetch with when I've had a shitty day, and someone who wants to kvetch back. Is it me, or does this line of work *really* not lend itself well to social relationships? Links to this post. I'm an acade...

Saturday, July 28, 2012. Good News, Bad News. The good news is that I got the job! Yay for the chance to work every day! Cancel the trip. You need to take care of yourself. Your parents will understand. If they dont, they will get over it. And bow out of VBS. they will also understand. Wow that sounds very overwhelming! I hope you can get out of VBS and that the trip home is a good one. Im really sorry about the health issues and Ill be praying that theyll be resolved soon as well! Youve overcome so many!

AcadeMama: Very Unlucky
http://academama.blogspot.com/2012/05/very-unlucky.html
Monday, May 14, 2012. When I went to the doctor at the pain clinic today- the one who did the original epidural steroid injection- to explain the subsequent complications and continuing pain in my back, his response was:. I'm sorry AcadeMama, you're just very unlucky.". I don't have that kind of time to be laying on my back, people! I've got shit to do, classes to prep, research to conduct, and a household to run. Did I mention he didn't even say sorry for puncturing my spinal sack? Oh AcadeMama, I am so...

AcadeMama: February 2012
http://academama.blogspot.com/2012_02_01_archive.html
Tuesday, February 21, 2012. I've reached that point. Where I completely resent the situation I'm in. Let me be very clear about this. I do not resent my husband. What I resent is the fact that I'm underemployed. Because of the new Shakespeare classes, I literally have more work (class prep and grading) to do this semester with less time to do it. This doesn't just affect work load for teaching, but it completely eliminates ANY possibility of doing my own research, another thing I've come to resent. I'm a...

AcadeMama: March 2013
http://academama.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 28, 2013. I may be back here.maybe not. I survived the Fall semester, which wasn't a small task. It was mentally, physically, emotionally, and professionally the most difficult semester I've ever faced. It took lots of antidepressants and mood stabilizers, which I'm no longer taking, but I survived. There was a point when I wasn't sure if I would, but I'm alive. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). I'm an academic and a mama. Placing one title in front of the other does not...

Common Discourse is moving…. Authenticity you dont choose. So the next time you meet someone who argues for their own authenticity, I suggest you ask them what they use to clean their grout.
