clashing hats: Here I am
http://clashinghats.blogspot.com/2008/12/here-i-am.html
I need fresh things. Sunday, December 28, 2008. Yeah, so I don't know what's going on with me and the blogging of late.I just don't seem to have much to say. There's plenty of drama, but I seem to have made a move away from using this as a tell-all space.My feelings of self-consciousness have finally won out. I have none. (And I don't say this in an embittered kind of way.I just don't feel it.I'm okay.) Though Christmas Day at my mother's was surprisingly nice. A fun Christmas dinner. It definitely sound...

clashing hats: September 2008
http://clashinghats.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
I need fresh things. Tuesday, September 30, 2008. Are all I can manage. I am so tired of working 12-hour days every day and feeling like I'm running around breathless for most of that time. I am having fantasies about quitting. All of the incidents of last week aren't helping. I'm doing another round of the Academic Writing Club and it's working the wrong way on me. Quite the opposite of my success with it last time. I heart my physiotherapist. I first went to him two weeks ago. He's a sports phy...It's ...

clashing hats: January 2009
http://clashinghats.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
I need fresh things. Tuesday, January 13, 2009. Surgery on Thursday went well.turned out to be endometriosis. Whole ovary and fallopian tube removed, which they were trying to avoid. I'm really not bothered by this - no need for concern/condolences. Private room in hospital was a lovely treat. Morphine was not my favourite. Have just been, obviously, in recovery mode. (This was a laparotomy, not a laparascopy). My friend A is arriving on Thursday. Tuesday, January 13, 2009. Links to this post.

I need fresh things. Thursday, October 30, 2008. You know what, student whose. I am currently reading? If you are going to plagiarize gigantic swathes of your. Choosing something other than Sparknotes' fully googlable online guide to the novel might be a good idea. I am so done. Thursday, October 30, 2008. Sending warm and fuzzy clouds of sympathy your way. Take down time. I can't believe a student would be so dumb as to to that in a THESIS. I hope you're doing well otherwise. Yes, profoundly dumb. The t...

clashing hats: End-of-year meme
http://clashinghats.blogspot.com/2008/12/end-of-year-meme.html
I need fresh things. Monday, December 29, 2008. Skipped this last year, but seeing it at Dr. Crazy's. Reminded me of its value. 1 What did you do in 2008 that you’d never done before? Put a dog to sleep. Joined Facebook (like, yesterday). Was stung by a wasp (and had complications). 2 Did you keep your new year’s resolutions, and will you make more for next year? 3 Did anyone close to you give birth? 4 Did anyone close to you die? My beloved dog, Mr. Kasper. 5 What countries did you visit? Oh boy, did I?

clashing hats: Bye.
http://clashinghats.blogspot.com/2009/02/bye.html
I need fresh things. Tuesday, February 10, 2009. Hi, all. I know I've been gone for a month. I know I'm terrible for not responding to any of the lovely awards some of you gave me right around the time I disappeared from here. I'm sorry. And thank you. I've been doing just fine. I'm now almost five weeks past my surgery and feeling essentially back to normal. I've been working away at my research the last couple of weeks - getting an article ready to send out for publication. Tuesday, February 10, 2009.

clashing hats: Bed bugs in my hair
http://clashinghats.blogspot.com/2008/04/bed-bugs-in-my-hair.html
I need fresh things. Saturday, April 26, 2008. Bed bugs in my hair. Anyway, the major lesson here is to trust my gut! Update: I'm leaving tonight. Saturday, April 26, 2008. Oh my god, I'm so sorry! A word of advice, having dealt with bed bugs myself.don't even consider bringing your suitcase/bag into your home until you have washed everything in ridiculously hot water or chemically dry clean them. I'd even throw out your bag. They are insidious, smart little buggers. I would have probably left too. I agr...

Of Schisms, Reality TV, and Procrastination | Seeking Academia
https://seekingacademia.wordpress.com/2011/05/10/of-schisms-reality-tv-and-procrastination
Feminist. Catholic. Social Scientist. In no particular order. Oh, and all those other adjectives that identify me as an academic struggling to write. May 10, 2011. Of Schisms, Reality TV, and Procrastination. We should just join the Anglicans, he says, and I said well some of them are unifying. I don’t know, I think unity is great and heck, shouldn’t that be a good thing? Maybe I am just naive, I have never heard someone say they want a schism.
