I'm a blog slacker. (Not to be confused with a Bloggersnacker, which, by the way, is happening in Berkeley tomorrow at 2:00 pm.) I've been so busy with real life that I haven't had much energy to write blog posts lately, though I've been commenting throughout the 'Nacle a bit.
mfranti put up a beautiful poem on Feminist Mormon Housewives about the last 35 years of her life, and she invited the rest of us to post our lists. So, here's the last 28 years of my life, in brief. (My poor writing professor would probably cringe if he read this; he already thinks I'm too concise.)
I am...
different
a dreamer
misunderstood
::emerging::
involved
working
learning
growing
attacked
bruised
::rescued::
climbing
sliding
clawing
tired
clawing
::reborn::
called
striving
struggling
lonely
::not alone::
thinking
questioning
still believing

Cool poem. I don't have the courage to share much about myself online. I wrote a response to yours', and others', comments; your input was very helpful.
How's school going?
Thanks for your comment. The only reason I have as much courage as I do regarding sharing stuff about myself online is because I blog under a pseudonym. I wouldn't share things as openly as I do if I were to blog under my own name. (I'm sure somebody really determined could find out who I am, but at least this blog won't show up if someone googles me.)
School is going well. It's unbelievably busy right now, but it's a good busy.
