A bad blogger
December 8, 2008
Yes, that’s me. I have been willfully ignoring my blog all these weeks. And it’s not that I haven’t been doing anything. I have sent in ten applications (and thus have written like 30 essays…), I’ve begun a candy making spree, been hiking, and gotten my squat pretty solidly into the advanced category. (And speaking of strength standards, gubernatrix published her own set…yay for strong (and articulate) ladies!) Oh, and I got a job, teaching MCAT prep courses. I’ve finished training, and will get my first classes about a week into the new year. A bit frightening, having to teach physics and organic chemistry, but they tell me I’m qualified…
Heading up Mt. Pisgah in the late afternoon...
The day before yesterday I hiked up Mt. Pisgah. This was a hike that Tirza and I started when she visited, but we never got to the top, as the twenty pound baby she was lugging about was quite intent on NOT being carried up the mountain. It’s not a long way up; it takes a little over half an hour to get to the top when unencumbered by flailing infants. Brian wouldn’t go, as he said his “belly hurt”–which I understand to be the natural outcome of drinking the WHOLE pot of espresso yourself, but anyway…
...and down in the evening.
