I had the best birthday ever. First, I had a really great rehearsal with the band. Then my boyfriend took me out for the most delicious dinner. I had: tomato and zucchini soup, pasta with parmesan and balsamic vinegar, and amaretto cookies. Yum! The next part was a total surprise. He took me to The Slipper Room, a fantastic burlesque club. It was so...

The story as I know it:
Last semester, around finals time, an undergraduate at my university threatened to kill two other students. The other students were gay, and the student who threatened them said he was on a mission from God to kill homosexuals. The threats made the gay students so uncomfortable that they both transferred to another, more liberal campus. And what did the...

Today a colleague of mine, who is pregnant, was telling my boyfriend and me what an amazing experience pregnancy is and how it makes her glad to be a woman. She said to me about pregnancy, "I recommend it." Gaaaaaaaaah! Maybe one day, but not now. Not even some time soon. I've got so much other stuff to do before I become the coolest mom...

Better to wait until you're ready, or at least as ready as you ever could be. Although, in all honesty, I can feel my own clock ticking; I really do want to have a family a children (several in fact), but the time isn't right now either. Maybe in about 3-4 years I'll be ready to settle down and give marriage and kids some thought.
Even so, it really sucks watching all of the people I know getting married and having kids. I'd be lying if I said that I wasn't a small bit jelous

thank you, met with him - going to do a self-portrait.
BTW - being a mom before you are completely ready is the worst thing you can do to a child - it can't be rushed, you will just know when you are ready

I went to the doctor, and she said that she's 99.999% sure I'm going to be fine. She referred me to a breast surgeon to get checked out again, just in case, but I feel a lot better and I think things will be OK.

I'm feeling a serious need for relaxation. I'm stressed. I've mostly been keeping it to myself but last week I had a doctor's appointment because of some problems I've been having with my breasts (I don't want to get specific). The doctor referred me to a breast specialist, and my appointment with the specialist is tomorrow. There's probably nothing wrong. But I'm scared. I feel...

Go to your favorite news site and search for "uterine transplant." Uterine transplants won't be performed on humans for a long time, but the possibility is on the (far-off) horizon. Any thoughts?
I'm not against treatment for infertility, but I do wish more people would consider adopting. There are plenty of children already in the world who need good homes.

I'm getting really tired of taking classes, so I'm glad this is my last semester of course work. At this point, I've been taking classes for 20 of my (almost) 25 years. I have four hours of class tomorrow, and I'm not looking forward to it. I just don't want to do it anymore. I want to take my exams, write my dissertation, get my...

How did I get this horrible head cold? I feel so crappy that I'm not even hungry. If you know me, you know that means one of two things: 1) I'm really sick, 2) I'm a pod person and an alien with no appetite has taken over my body.

Happy Holidays and a merry Christmas! Congrats on finishing up the semester; so, I have to ask, when you Medievalists get together, do you drink meade and recite epic poetry? 'Cause if you do, I think I may have to hang out in the Medieval department mroe when I get to grad school!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY !!!
