"Your prison is walking through this world all alone."

You are unremarkable and unoriginal.  Some days that comforts you, following the path laid out for you by a billion forefathers and foremothers, whispering your destiny as they trod along.  Some days it scares the shit out of you, because darn it if you didn’t believe it when your mother said you were like a snowflake.

Another week gone by.  Happy belated Thanksgiving, everyone.

A Break to Thank

I have been in front of a computer for most of the day trying to work on my research paper. I'm not as productive as I assumed I was going to be this week, and it worries me. My eyes hurt, but I will try my best to entertain you, because I am thankful for you. And I'm always up for a story, even if I'm the one who tells it.

Six Crooked Highways

Today isn't Thursday.

Hello everyone!  This'll be a short one, and it will begin with an apology that I missed the last two days I should have posted.  I'm SO BUSY.  I'm basically going to just tell you what work I have to do and anything else that comes to mind while I sit here alone in lab, waiting for my assay to run.  I'm playing Led Zeppelin right now!

Internationally Domestic This Week

Hello, friends.

For the first time in about a month, I'm spending an entire weekend in Madrid!  How nice.  Sorry I missed last week's post; I was in Denmark, which complicated things.

I forgot it was Wednesday

I'm about to go to bed. I know I need to write a post, but I can't right now. Busy with trying to do all the work I have to do while also staying healthy.
Here's a link to some photos of a walk I took with my friend Mike this past Friday:

I'll try to be better. Argh. Sorry.

Two weeks and counting

Oh man, I promised a good post and I'm going to let you guys down.  I would feel bad if I was not so exhausted.  Sometimes a man needs sleep, and this is one of those times.  I hope you visit me in dream land as you occasionally do.  See you all next week.

Well, if you’re travelin’ in the north country fair, Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline

GIS is taking up a little bit of my time.

There's so much free frozen pizza in the English Department lounge. I think they're training our stomachs for our future diets as struggling artists.

A list of things and then another list of things. Thoughts on thoughts on thoughts.

Anyone can think a thing because, but to think something despite...

Well this week's post is going to be a short one again because I have a  lot of work to do, but after this week I should be free to make long, thought provoking posts, or so I hope. 

Something is happening here, but you don’t know what it is, do you, Mister Jones?

Today is the first day of my offseason, and it is a strange thing. My last race was on Saturday, and since I am not not eight on the team, I will not be racing Regionals this coming Saturday or Nationals the Saturday after that. That is not to say I will not be there.

"My heart is made of stronger stuff than glass"... Except that bulletproof kind.

Hey, guys.

Writing this post from Cole's favorite spot in Europe... and "Mr. Tambourine Man" just came on and my heart filled with that weird jolty-adrenaline feeling.  We are in the most adorable hostel, and there's going to be live music very soon.  But they've been playing incredible music all day, from our friends like Kansas and Mumford & Sons.

Jump, jump! Or, to use the Spanish informal second person imperative form, "¡Salta!"

The Seven of Cups

The sun has pierced the clouds and the leaves are gently falling in front of my window.  My kettle has boiled and tea is steeping--I shall now rise from the depths of Google Scholar and Web of Science to regale you with tales of the past seven days.

"New medical study suggests you should run. Run! It's too late for us. Save yourself, the report concludes."

Hey folks. This week's theme is about how I've been appreciating the arts in different ways than I usually do. And then perhaps branching out from there about life in general, as my posts tend to do. But let's go ahead and get this party  small gathering of friends started.

One day to get it all right

Unfortunately, I don't have time to write a lot this week either. These next two weeks are going to be the hardest of the semester for me so I'm trying to focus on staying afloat and sadly that means blogging takes a hit. However, I am committed to posting so I will provide what minimal entertainment I can.

So be it, Jedi.

November already? Jumping jellyfish, that happened fast.

"You'll follow me back with the sun in your eyes, and on your own, bedshaped with legs of stone."

When you read this, I’ll be in Turkey, which marks the fourth country out of five I’ll be visiting this semester, unless something unexpected happens.

Sorry I missed last week’s post.  Fridays can be tough, because I’m such a party animal and all.

Here’s what’s up in my life.  I have written a series of vignettes for your enjoyment.
