Life here in NYC continutes to go decently well. Sonya and I are joining the Church of the Village next week; it is very nice for us both to have found a place where we feel like we can belong. For myself, I can say that my mother was, in fact, right.
She knows what I'm talking about.

So, I made it through Death Month intact. I don't even have mono this time. Life is good.
The trip to Baton Rouge went well. It was quite nice to see the folks I saw, both my colleagues and my family. I look forward to doing so again.
Now, laundry, catching up on grading, and putting together a panel for the 2010 SCMLA Conference in...

Yes, I know I missed making my blog post yesterday.
No, I don't really have anything to say.
I'll be heading out of town this week. Sunday will be my day to come back. I may not have any new blogging then, either.
That is all.

Twenty-one years ago today was the death of James H. Bryant, my grandfather. Not the best association with the date, to be sure.
Today, though, has been a good day for me. Sonya and I went to the Church of the Village this morning. The service was nice, if a bit long, and the bishop personally invited us back. I think we'll be...

Yesterday was a good day.
Sonya came through with a bit of an early birthday present for me. Radio City Music Hall hosted a performance of the score of The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring, played live to a showing of the film. It was AWESOME. Raised goosebumps on me. Vocalists, particularly Kaitlyn...

Sonya and I went to a little medieval festival up at Fort Tryon Park. We had a pretty good time there, even if it was a bit crowded and under-served with food. The music was fine, the craft booths were pretty good, and watching people get smacked upside the head with sticks is always, ALWAYS funny.
I am almost looking...

So I missed my usual blog time this week, for which I apologize. I have been neglecting quite a bit of my writing recently, which is, I know, far from a good thing.
To catch up, then:
On Friday, Sonya and I went to Home Depot to place a materials order. That done, Saturday, said order came in, and the two of...

Obviously, church is not happening this time around. But I am nt annoyed by this. Quite frankly, the extra sleep was better, and much needed.
I went back to work this week. Fortunately, I popped in on Tuesday, because when I got to the office, I found out that I had been assigned another section...on Wednesday. So I'm earning an extra $165 each week for...

Church today seems to be right out.
Sonya and I were at a a friend's house for a party for one of the friend's friends; it was an Americana party, with many of us dressing as stereotypes. Sonya relied on her Hispanic heritage. I looked like a laid-back ranch-kid. One guy, a Japanese national, dressed as a thug, complete with sagging pants and off-center hat....

Sonya and I just got back from going to church and going to lunch.
We went to church in preparation for getting married. Since we're getting hitched in the United Methodist Church, it makes sense to us (and to the preacher) that we get "pre-marital counseling," and since dropping in out of the blue and asking for that would be a little gauche, we're trying...

I am at the ened of another semester of teaching, which is nice. The past thirteen weeks have been quite good, and I am far from displeased with the amount of money I have managed to bring in. I've not gotten so much work done as I would have like, but that is almost always the case.
Next week at this time, I'll be in...

This past week has, as is never a surprise anymore, been busy. I am getting a fair amount of reading done for the dissertation and one of the conference papers I'm working on (the one for SCMLA). But, as I noted earlier, I have another paper to put together, this one for what is probably the most important annual conference in my field.
