Resolutions and Related Nonsense

It's not really a New Year's resolution, because if I call it that, it will suffer the curse of most resolutions and not get fulfilled. I want to post more often, so I pseudo-resolve to post some funny/thoughtful/interesting link at least once every other day. (Ideally every day, but let's not get too ambitious here.) Hopefully just logging in and posting the link will get me to also add content about my life (supposedly the purpose of this site -- shocking, I know).

So here's the link, courtesy of David and the funny folks at McSweeney's. Relevant, eh?

My semester is off to a roaring start. I have spent 16 (of an eventual 150 total) hours at my internship at DePauw so far and I'm already swamped. I have three science professors I have projects going with, one pretty sizeable, along with ongoing bibliographic instruction and possibly collection development responsibility. And there's a Women in Science project to work on in Archives if I have any time left over. Whew. It's totally what I was looking for, though. So it'll be good.

Oh, and I'm taking a class, too. It's L651, Evaluation of Library Resources and Services. My last required class and the only one I'll take from Tom Nisonger, owner of the best beard and ugliest suitcoat and one of the best reputations in SLIS.

Other news of note:

  • We went to a game party hosted by Tracy and Susan on Saturday night. We played Apples to Apples (which Samantha won!), a short game of Trivial Pursuit and a fun game of Cranium. Good times -- clearly this kind of thing needs to occur more often.
  • We saw Mari do her fiddlin' thang at Encore Cafe (twice now!) on Friday and went to The Vid (the coolest dive bar in Bloomington) where we saw more slizzards. I think it's becoming a SLIS hangout.
  • We are working on the invite list for our wedding party in June. Keep an eye out for an e-mail in the near future.
  • We made homecooked meals almost all week. Go us.

So now we're going to have pizza with Samantha's work friend Andrew and his fiancee Katy and watch The Muppets Take Manhattan. Woot. Peace all, and talk atcha again soon.
