What the cold does to the Duck...

When the Minnesotans tell you that it's cold, it's cold. It's really cold in Minnesota right now. Grr....I'm trying to stay warm, but that's not working out for me so well. I did give up and start using the puffy coat that invites ridicule from the "real" mid-westerners. However, I am a wannabe mid-westerner, so I will wear the puffy coat with extreme pride.

Cold also makes me sleepy. So reading the tons of books that I have to read this semester is a challenge! My classes are quite interesting this semester, so I enjoy the reading, it's just that I'm cold!

Hot Chocolate is my friend. mmm.....Hot Chocolate.....

Blogging with Pen and Paper…..

Or it’s equivalent….. Writing this blog in MS Word feels like writing with pen and paper. The internet is down at my apartment. I feel like something is missing. I cannot check IMDB at a moments notice. I cannot check Facebook, MySpace or e-mail. I cannot watch YouTube, check up on blogs, look for plane tickets, look for answers to all the random questions I have while watching TV, research (read: play Webkinz . I do read actual reports too...) and play Scrabulous. I cannot instant message or Skype! What am I going to do with myself? Well, I’m blogging with MS Word. I started to clean my desk. I’m watching shows on DVD that I haven’t had time to watch since I got them. (Star Trek: Voyager and The Muppet Show, yes, I am a geek.) I never realize how the internet has revolutionized how I live until it’s gone. I depend on it for research, communication and recreation. I wonder what is going to happen over the next 5, 10, and 20 years how it will ...

Anita's Cheerleaders Part Deux

So, I'm going through some serious transition times. Yes, it hasn't and won't be easy. I am thankful that I have awesome friends who are super supportive. And I am going to need some support along the way. I want to get back into running. I just did the Color Run . (I highly suggest that you do this sometime in your life.) My friend Laura Kay did this with me, and we did it in 53 minutes, which is a really good time for me. I just figured out the start to a book that a professor suggested I write. I want to get back to writing. So, what am I asking for? I'm asking for cheerleaders once again. It doesn't matter where you live. I just need folks to cheer me on and keep me on track. I need to remember that I have support from all over the world. So here's the job description...Weeks begin November 4. The last week begins December 30. So, friends, pick a week, and let's do this. ...
