Keeping Up With Myself
http://machiavellianmusings.blogspot.com/2010/12/when-i-get-chance-i-like-to-volunteer.html
Keeping Up With Myself. Thursday, December 16, 2010. When I get the chance, I like to volunteer with high school and younger kids and try to get them interested in careers in math and science. To this end, here is my list of awesome things about engineering/math/science:. 1 Engineers often get to wear jeans to work. 2 If you are a female engineer, there is never a line for a bathroom. 3 If you go into math and science, people will always think you're smart. 7 Engineers have the funniest jokes.*.

Keeping Up With Myself: February 2010
http://machiavellianmusings.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Keeping Up With Myself. Friday, February 19, 2010. Reading: Tess D'Ubervilles, Penguin Classic edition. I'm a sucker for a pretty book, and the rereleased Penguin series are a serious level two contender in my collection of pretty books. (Level one is the leather bound gilded editions, Level two is pretty covers, Level 3 is unusual normal editions, like my autographed Terry Prachett books.) I'm finding James slow going, but the premise is interesting. Watching: The Olympic Games. Hating: Best Buy's coupon.

Keeping Up With Myself. Friday, June 18, 2010. In paradisum deducant te Angeli:. In tuo adventu suscipiant te Martyres,. Et perducant te in civitatem sanctam Ierusalem. Chorus Angelorum te suscipiat,. Et cum Lazaro quondam paupere æternam habeas requiem. May Angels lead you into paradise;. May the Martyrs receive you at your coming. And lead you to the holy city of Jerusalem. May a choir of Angels receive you,. And with Lazarus, who once was poor, may you have eternal rest. Thursday, June 17, 2010. Any m...

Keeping Up With Myself: January 2011
http://machiavellianmusings.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Keeping Up With Myself. Sunday, January 2, 2011. I love lists. (My entire family just went "duh".) One of my favorite things about the start of the year is the cultural endorsement of massive amounts of list making. As one of the things I'd like to keep up with in the new year is blogging, here's some of my favorites:. Movies that we will watch in January (from the AFI list). Home Improvements we will make. 1 Shelf in the bathroom. 3 Repaint B.J.'s office. 1 Laundry washed, folded and put away. Watermark...

Keeping Up With Myself: Today I am
http://machiavellianmusings.blogspot.com/2010/10/today-i-am.html
Keeping Up With Myself. Wednesday, October 13, 2010. Recently, I've had an upsurge of gratitude about the little things, which feel more meaningful to me than all of the big things put together. Overall, I'm grateful for all of the answers to prayer that I've experienced over the past weeks, and thankful for the things that I have, without even having to ask for them. Hey you are an engineer? Like the way you write about yourself! FYI i am new here. November 13, 2010 at 12:11 PM. I'm a twenty three year ...

Keeping Up With Myself. Tuesday, January 5, 2010. The Call of Cthulhu and Other Weird Stories by H.P. Lovecraft. 500) Days of Summer Soundtrack. Victoria's Secret Love Spell Body Splash. A gift from my sister in law, this is a refreshing, light scent. Wearing it is an automatic compliment from my husband, and a nice break from the muskier perfumes that I normally wear in the winter. LL Bean's Wicked Good Slippers and other cold weather garments. Snow and other winter precipitation. I can see right throug...

The Spiritual Buzzkill: Orientation
http://beejsblog.blogspot.com/2008/10/orientation.html
Sunday, October 5, 2008. It was a new start, yet it all looked and felt familiar. I tried leaving part of my past, yet it was there with me. I was there to study writing, but I was confronted by my previous studies- theology. I was there to pursue an MFA, but orientation took place in what was once a Baptist church. It was orientation. Or was it church? It is here with me now. Posted by Beej Jones. I hope it never leaves you. It's a good thing to hold on to! October 5, 2008 at 11:51 PM. A Mans Best Sign.

Keeping Up With Myself: April 2011
http://machiavellianmusings.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Keeping Up With Myself. Wednesday, April 27, 2011. I am so glad that I didn't put "Write more blog posts" on my list of New Year's Resolutions. I'm not a big fan of setting myself up for failure. 1 Introducing Beej to Wishbone. Was a PBS show that came on when I was in middle school. It features a Jack Russel Terrier who reenacts classic books with himself in the title roles. There's humans in there too, but honestly, who cares? 2 Oscar Nominated movies. This past year was unusual in that a lot of movies...
