Everything over Rice: December 2014
http://everythingoverrice.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 31, 2014. Things to Do in 2015. Consciously and intentionally spend time alone doing non-mommy things. Away from my house. Find a way to keep my children out of my bedroom much more often. See The Diva more frequently. Read more books that have nothing to do with class (although I happily have a chance in the coming semester to teach two books that I loved reading for pleasure)- I vaguely recall that I used to do this all the time. What happened to that? Laugh more. Seriously.

Academic, Hopeful: Calling on All Academics
http://academichopeful.blogspot.com/2009/06/calling-on-all-academics.html
Observations, obsessions and obscenities from a PhD student at an elite University. Sunday, 21 June 2009. Calling on All Academics. Fellow academics and friends, I need your help. Late last week, I was out at dinner when someone, who shall only be known as 'businessman', asked me the question I have been asked since the first few months of starting my thesis, 'What are you going to do next? I think I blurted (or burped) out something about how terribly stunted and boring the world would be if everyone wa...

Academic, Hopeful: Tuesday, Before Sleep
http://academichopeful.blogspot.com/2010/10/tuesday-before-sleep.html
Observations, obsessions and obscenities from a PhD student at an elite University. Tuesday, 12 October 2010. Tuesday, Before Sleep. I have a full thesis now. It's finally fun, this thesis-writing lark, tidying it up. Submission date within weeks. Viva date already set. Supervisor has uttered 'excellent' and 'very good' in front of me, in relation to my work, for the first time. With other words. But still. On most days, it is bright and blue outside, but it is very chilly. 13 October 2010 at 01:37.

A journey of rediscovering Me. Me in a Nutshell. Leave me a note. Little Girl Of Two…. My Friend of the Backyard Games. My Friend of the Backyard Games. My Friend of the Backyard Games. These were the times of the backyard games. Fireflies in jars,. Like capturing a night sky full of stars. Sounds of red rover and “tag your it”. Cowboys and Indians, bloodcurdling screams. When the Indians won, as they always did. Midnight secrets of little girls. Morning laughter, whispers and winks. I'm a wife and a Mot...

Mom, Ph.D.: February 2011
http://momandphd.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Mom, Ph.D. This is a blog about my endless pursuit of the perfect balance between being a good mom and being a successful academic. Sunday, February 27, 2011. Is a visiting professor job a bad career move? We are at the time in the academic job market cycle when some ABDs and new PhDs will begin considering visiting professor positions. I was about to accept a great TT job elsewhere, so I didn't apply. But I think I would have had a definite advantage in that job search. Right or wrong, faculty often fee...

Mom, Ph.D.: July 2011
http://momandphd.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Mom, Ph.D. This is a blog about my endless pursuit of the perfect balance between being a good mom and being a successful academic. Sunday, July 31, 2011. Wine, coffee, and now mixed drinks- much ado. When my partner and I were first together, he got me interested in wine tasting. We spent a good bit of money, learned to act pretentious, and took a trip to Napa-Sonoma. Then I got a job and had kids. Mom, Ph.D. Thursday, July 28, 2011. Houscleaner, cleaning solutions, and mini-strokes. The house cleaner I...

Stupid Nail Polish Names: Bitches Brew
http://stupidnailpolishnames.blogspot.com/2010/11/bitches-brew.html
Stupid Nail Polish Names. Sunday, November 7, 2010. SCENE I. A cavern. In the middle, a boiling nail polish bottle. Thunder. Enter the three Bitches. Thrice I've backstabbed my best friend. Thrice and once today I've whined. I am SO bored- 'Tis time, 'tis time. Round about the bottle go;. Add like, whatever, I don't know. Eye of newt; some blood of ducks;. That should be good for sixteen bucks. Looks kind of dirty, but don't panic;. Charge extra- call the brand organic. Double, double toil and trouble;.
