As Far As I Can Tell

92 and counting

By the time I’m done writing this Meredith’s flight will have landed in London, the first leg of her trip to Lille completed. I woke up so nervous this morning, as if I was the one leaving the country for over half a year. I was dreaming that all our houseplants had starting growing like mad, sprouting upwards and spawning giant flowers that they’d never had before. It’s like they’d learned how to speed up time, growing and flourishing at an increased rate. I can only hope the next 8 months will feel that way for me. Go time go.

I’m not dwelling on the whole chunk of time though; I bought my ticket last weekend. Ninety-two days until I’m in France. I’ll be counting them down.

Time will go fast once we get past these transitions and we are in the countdown…The Final Countdown. Thanks for your support spanning the Atlantic.

After so many years of being cynical, I'm surprised by how moved I was while watching Obama's speech. This is it, our chance for change.

Haircuts are one of the few times when I'm forced to just sit still and relax.

Evernote is the perfect "clip queue." Really amazing.

I love my headphones. The sound is so spatially separated that just now I swore I heard a noise downstairs while listening to Diplo.

Working on a conference abstract, so far it's a little obtuse.
