There's a West Wing episode where Leo tells Bartlett, "You're going to open your mouth and lift houses off the ground. Whole houses, clear off the ground." This blog used to be about writing a dissertation -- although I'm not sure it was ever really about that. But now it's about my life as a brand new assistant professor, still hoping to lift whole houses off the ground. It's academy meets Ab.

A little too tired
My Thursday evenings are usually my long nights on campus, as some of you know. But tonight I get a reprieve, as Beej has a strange schedule today and should be done by 7:00. Part of the problem with my typical Thursday night is a very full week, I'm beat. I can't function in the way I want to. And that's true tonight, too. Because I'd like to write about Sarah Palin (because certainly no one else is). But I can't do it in the way I'd like to. But this article gets at some of the discomfort I feel every time I see her. Please to enjoy.
