So, thanks to the poking of one Zeibs, I've been prompted to start a new blog. How, you ask, will this be different from my old blog?
1) It will talk about aspects of my life aside from extensive amounts of time spent at the end of the world.
2) I will actually, you know, do some writing every once in a while (besides when I'm waiting for planes to land in the fog).
So, to start with... I am currently living in Corvallis, Oregon. By "in" I really mean about 14 miles south and west of town in the foothills of Oregon's Coast Range. I'm sharing a house with a woman named Tamara and her two black labs, Tolly and Ace (aka Thing 1 and Thing 2).
I'm just finishing my second quarter of graduate school at Oregon State University in Oceanography. Chemical Oceanography, to be specific. Given that I majored in biology and spent four years studying fur seals and sea birds, I occassionally look around and think "How did I get here again? Seals? Carbon particulates? It makes sesnse, right?"
Despite getting my ass kicked for a large part of the last few months, I love grad school, love my program, love my classmates, and love my living situation. Really, life is good.
