http://thelifeacademic.wordpress.com/ A perfect opportunity to follow up on my last post showed up in the comment stream today, so I thought I’d share it with you all and respond to it publicly. What you’ve got there is a fearsome internet warrior, one Bradeep Ncube, challenging me about whether or not I was telling the truth about talking back to cat-callers (click on the image to see the comment in its unchanged condition on my original post).

Not to worry, these holes are the good kind But first, I finally sourced lumber for my fascia boards! Located a mere 80 miles away in the form of 1×12 rough redwood, my wonderful dad swung by on a trip to pick up my mother from the airport and strapped them to the roof rack.

Buoy Bird

http://buoybird.com/ It’s December 1st, meaning… IT’S CHIRSTMAS!!!! :D Now of course I know it’s not accctually Christmas, but the Advent calenders are out and Jeff is consuming that awful Advent calender-chocolate, so that mean I can say, “IT’S CHRISTMAS!!!” It was serendipitous that I happened to not be working on December 1st, as it’s allowed me to jump right into my Holiday crafting/decorating/over-indulging. And keeping with the trend of turning our little sea-side cottage into a nautical extravaganza, I figured I’d bring the holidays and the sea-theme together, and I came up with this: Move over simple, round Christmas wreath, you’ve been replaced by the new kid in town.
http://kristinandkayla.blogspot.com/ We recently visited the Big Island , and the kids had a blast. This is the second time they have traveled by plane, so they were pretty excited at the beginning of the flight. Kayla was expecting to see sea turtles right away, which we didn't encounter until towards the end of our trip, and then saw 6 of them at once. Day 2 I was off to shoot a wedding, and the kids headed to the lagoon.

The Hindsight Letters

Hello everyone, As summer draws to a close I wanted to finish the Dear Adult Me summer series with some submissions from writers who are just embarking on their adolescence. The following is a collection of Letters written by 12 year old students to their Adult Selves, gathered by THL reader and contributor Amber Saferight. Amber is a teacher who writes a fabulous Blog called Class Bookworm . Be sure to check it out! Thanks very much to Amber for facilitating the writing of such fantastic Letters. http://thehindsightletters.com/

“I don’t mean to burden you with my non-problems. I know you’re busy.” I texted that last night to someone, as I stood on the verge of tears, the verge of smashing plates, and the verge of curling up in the fetal position for a while. I was about a minute away from a full-on hormonal breakdown, and I was apologizing for being an inconvenience. For being a burden. http://nessfraser.com/

So I’ve been in Pembroke, ON for a little over three weeks now. It seems as though I brought the East Coast with me, with respect to the weather, at least. The last two days have seen snow, rain and wind, and it’s not difficult to imagine that my day-to-day routine is particularly boring. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be writing about the weather. http://meaghanross.wordpress.com/

Femme. Faux-independence. Fetishized object. Fucktoy. These are the main qualities used to describe female action heroes in the media.

Today was the big day. We only had one game and it was the one we got to play with Wayne. I was excited all day about it. I stayed out late and had lots of fun last night with the other campers, but I crashed earlier than most because I didn't want to be hurting on the day I got to play hockey with Wayne Gretzky. The bus didn't leave until 1:45pm so we spent some time walking around the Bellagio. We went to check out the pool area and ran into some other campers and Mike Keenan.

Oh She Glows

After Eric and I returned the moving truck on Sunday afternoon, we came back to the new place and I started unpacking while he set up the office. You know, I always thought we’d forget a few things when moving…maybe a tarnished earring in the bathroom drawer, a dusty sock under the dryer, or a garden tool in the garage. Somehow, we managed to forget one of the most valuable things in the house- the machine that holds my cookbook recipes and photography. Go figure. And on the driveway of all places…lol. It had now been about 4 hours since we left the house…and the computer sitting on the driveway.
There are two primary axes of political conflict in Kim Stanley Robinson's incomparable Mars trilogy : first, the expected (almost generically required) question of independence vs. interdependence with regard to the mother planet, Earth, which is really a question about Utopia and enclavism that is concretized in the fierce battles over the space elevator ; and second and more relevant for my purposes today is the fierce break between the Red Martians and the Green Martians. The Greens believe the planet should be terraformed so as to inhabitable by humans without mechanical assistance, a technical problem that clumps around issues of surface temperature, atmospheric composition and density, and unpredictable climactic feedback mechanisms; the Reds believe the planet should be left as pristine as possible, whether because this is the only way it can be properly studied or because the otherwise dead rock is seen by some Reds to have a kind of mystical vitality all its own.

We all spend years of our lives lamenting over our body's imperfections. The Love the Pudge Movement is an attempt to change the way we think about our bodies. I wish to show people that our biggest insecurities can be their most beautiful features. My goal is to spread this perspective to the world. www.lovethepudge.blogspot.com www.mojalvo.blogspot.com mojalvo26@Gmail.com
