Blogging hasn't been a priority for some time. Simply too much going on around here, and any free time is spent on Facebook. (I'm only half-joking there...)
At any rate, my Capstone is starting to seem surmountable, I feel good when I write, and who knows, with the current economy and state of our school budget, having writing skills on which to fall back might not be a bad idea.
In true procrastinator's form, here is an (incomplete) list of things I can't wait to do when my Master's degree is done:
1) Eradicate all evidence that Microsoft Word ever lived on my hard drive. For the purposes of being able to communicate with my professors, and trade papers back and forth, it has been necessary for me to keep using Word to write this paper. It is redundant and inferior, and I can't wait to throw it out the Window. (See what I did there?)
2) Blog. And write. And write, and blog. Maybe I'll write my book.
3) Play my guitar. My calluses are gone, but every now and then I still pick up my guitar and realize how much I enjoy playing. I want to put together a set of classic punk and new wave tunes that I play on an acoustic guitar, and play them for no one in particular.
4) Write some songs. I saw John Prine the other night. I'm always amazed how he says so much with three basic chords. I want to try it.
5) Ride my bike. My belly's too big, and my wedding ring won't come off my finger.
6) Hang out with my family. I have a great family, and they're growing up and changing by the minute.
7) Learn to use my USB microphone/recording studio.
8) Take pictures with my cool waterproof camera.
9) Live beside the ocean/leave the fire behind/swim out past the breakers/and watch the world die.
That's what I have for now.
