Wow, it’s been a while.

WordPress has gotten pretty nice behind the scenes. I have no idea if this post signifies a return to regular blogging or not. I just have that awkward 10 minutes before a class across campus. The first day of classes used to make me nervous. I didn’t think that would ever go away. It’s one [...]

Blog Police

The blog police just informed me that if I don’t start posting more, they’re going to issue me a citation. I don’t think they’re serious about taking down the blog if I haven’t posted for two months, but I don’t want to take that chance. I’ve seen these guys in action and they’re brutal. They’ll [...]

Wait, people still read this?

Yes, so my plans to blog to the end of my London trip didn’t come to light. But never one to accept defeat, I’m trying to get back on the horse. Alas, my time in London is over. But my month in Europe with everything I own on my back is just beginning. And I [...]

Where was I?

London, of course. Paris. Stratford, Dover, Oxford, Cambridge. Next weekend, Sweden. Apologies for the lack of updates, especially to those of you who have just started following the blog (ahem, Ruth Anne!). As it turns out, there is an inverse relationship between having time to enjoy yourself and blogging about your experience. But I’ve decided [...]

I’m off

I know there haven’t been updates in a while (even after they were predicted in the recent past), but today is the first day of my foreshadowed trip to London. The trip is actually the reason the blog came back into existence in the first place, so I’m fully intending to get back to regular [...]

Regularly Schedule Programming

Just a quick note to say that I’ll be back to posting regularly “really soon now”–probably during the weekend. So if you haven’t been getting your fill of Kantian ethics and vague references to London, hang in there. Thanksgiving break was wonderful time spent with family (having a laptop in front of your face tends [...]

Blog plans

So I’ve already come out with my plans to bore people to death with Londontalk building up to and during next semester. But I’ve also got a couple of other plans coming up. Partially inspired by Chris’s excellent posts on individual portions of the Confucius’s Analects (note to Chris, you need an “Analects” tag, that’s [...]

Banner image

The mountains in the banner image have begun to seem a little dreary to me. Originally, it was supposed to be sunset in the sense of “later” in the en”light”enment. But I’ve started to think about the picture as the twilight of the enlightenment. In addition, some people may not even see them as mountains. [...]

New Theme

Ok, so I’m sticking with this design for the near future. I’m not happy with it, but shooting for perfection is counter-productive. Meanwhile, I see my competition (and sole commenter to date) over at A Ku Indeed! has a beautiful new theme. I really like that look and wish I would have found it first! [...]

New Blog

Not that I ever used the old one, but maybe I’ll have some interesting thoughts to put here from time to time. I do plan on keeping the Status Page updated.
