too often my entries are my bitching about deadlines. i swore i'd stop, but i wanted to update bc i haven't in a long time (bad community-member) bc i've been really really busy, and unfortunately it's to bitch again. the last week has been one of the most intense of my life. i've had a week to get a month's worth of writing done (with...

back from San Antonio. most of the trip was, as expected, highly forgettable. but i had fun the night before last when i wandered into this grungey pool joint called The Texan 2 (it was a total dive; the thought that there may be a 'Texan 1' somewhere raises questions ... ) and in there i made friends with a couple of local students who...
