Wow so I haven't updated this in forever.
Stuff I am doing now:
1. Research assistant: Procrastinating on stuff for Tom Noel's new edition of his atlas. I have it mostly done, I just have this weird thing yo where I don't finish shit because I get afraid of it I don't know what the fuck
2. Writer: Just turned in my first-ever article for the UCD Advocate, the university's alt-weekly. One day Dr. Miller asked me "Do you write still?" and I said no, I've been busy, and he gives me that look like I've betrayed humanity, and says "Oh, that's too bad," like he doesn't know that THAT DAY I will rush out and find a way to get paid and published. Because fuck me, it is honestly that easy for me to get assignments. Advocate pays pretty decently, too. Believe it or not, this first assignment is actually a huge two-page feature spread. It was all because Dr. Miller said something, and he is one of the few people whose tone means I will kill myself doing the impossible because they offhandedly said I should do it.
3. Comps: Studying and reading.
4. Music: Busy as all fuck, despite deliberately not trying and not really having any time for it, I have once again had my summer filled up with music stuff.
5. Oregon Trail: I haven't done anything in the way of intensive traveling this summer, and I am really, really pissed about that. I need to put my foot down I guess and say NO I NEED A WEEK OFF FUCKING LIVE WITH IT. I am going to Vegas, but that's not a work-travel situation. I am so behind on my travel stuff it's not even funny, and I'm starting to resent the other things that are scheduled in my life because of it.
6. Health: Fine. Having surgery the 27th but w/e. It's the feet again, unsurprisingly. This time they need major restructuring I guess. Yes, both, and there's some huge laundry list of problems. Also broke my left foot. I haven't been wearing the cast because it annoys the crap out of me more than the break.
And I have a cold that needs to die in time for me to get my pre-surgery bloodwork done.
