Marvelous Things: OK Fine!
http://marvelous-things7.blogspot.com/2009/05/ok-fine.html
Wednesday, May 20, 2009. Alrighty, insert standard "sorry I was away" apologies here. What have I been up to? Let me count the things:. 2 I came back home and stayed up for basically 24 hours with no caffeine, fueled by adrenaline at seeing my beloved Davidson family. 3 Being reunited with my parents and siblings (and then my grandparents, a special plus! Was wonderful. Eight months is a long. Time to be away! 5 After a little over a week back in the States, I began my summer internship at Paste Magazine.

Marvelous Things: June 2009
http://marvelous-things7.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 5, 2009. Something New And Different: The Decemberists concert 06.03.09. Longtime readers of my blog (hello, immediate family! Will remember that I saw The Decemberists in concert two years ago at the Tabernacle and had an amazing time. Blind Pilot opened the show; I wasn't previously familiar with their work but really enjoyed their set. Unlike the opening act from 2007, the crowd gave them a warm welcome and appreciated their music, rather than booing them offstage. Becky Stark as Margaret].

Marvelous Things: I'm Back.
http://marvelous-things7.blogspot.com/2010/01/im-back.html
Wednesday, January 27, 2010. So what could possibly bring me back to this neglected blog? A few things, but mostly a certain exciting announcement by Apple today. I have been enjoying my tumblr. But it works more as an online scrapbook than actual blog. It feels off to post personal things there instead of photos or quotes, so "Marvelous Things" wins that battle. Today, Apple announced its latest product, the iPad. All inappropriate jokes about the name aside, it looks relatively intriguing. The page-tur...

Marvelous Things: April 2009
http://marvelous-things7.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 17, 2009. Travelling, Treking, On ze road again. Today I'm leaving for Paris. Then I'm going to Corsica. Then I'm heading back to Paris. Then I'm coming back to Tours. Then I'm returning to Paris. Then I'm flying to the USofA! During the approximately two weeks in Corsica-Paris-Corsica, I will have limited web or email access, so don't be hopeful for a sudden, miraculous surge of blogging. However, thanks to the magic of Twitter, I can microblog! Monday, April 13, 2009. The Hazards of Love.

Marvelous Things: February 2010
http://marvelous-things7.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 18, 2010. A little while ago, my post on Riddle 30. Invited a comment asking for a more literal, less poetic translation of the Riddle. I'll reproduce three texts below: the original, my first translation, and my edited/poetic translation:. Riddle 30 – Verse Indeterminate Saxon. Ic eom legbysig, lace mid winde,. Bewunden mid wuldre, wedre gesomnad,. Fus forðweges, fyre gebysgad,. Bearu blowende, byrnende gled. Ful oft mec gesiþas sendað æfter hondum,. Þæt mec weras ond wif wlonce cyssað.

Wednesday, January 28, 2009. I've previously mentioned the Getting Things Done. System, but it deserves another shout-out. It truly made a revolutionary difference on how I look at tasks and projects. I was never a big to-do list person (though I did enjoy writing things down after they were done so I could still check them off) but since reading GTD, I am convinced of their value when used correctly. I decided to kick things up a notch (but affordably! Now that I am in her homeland, I will be doing an i...

Marvelous Things: But Where Are The Pages? Some Thoughts on the Kindle & the Impending Apocalypse
http://marvelous-things7.blogspot.com/2009/08/but-where-are-pages-some-thoughts-on.html
Wednesday, August 5, 2009. But Where Are The Pages? Some Thoughts on the Kindle and the Impending Apocalypse. This is my Kindle. Its name is Giles (yes, named after that. First, a bit of background information. I have loved books for the majority of my life (ever since I muddled out how the alphabet worked at a young age). I have read ebooks for about five years now, off-and-on. The platforms on which I have read ebooks are the Palm Zire 71 (what a great PDA that was! S have the magic of always rememberi...
