Wednesday, 1 September 04 :: around the blogging world.

i'm hopped up on coffee and chocolate. *great*

but..

my longest blogging friend, whom i don't talk to much these days, but who i hope knows that i think about her often and just simply adore her, can't sleep. *sigh* i wish there were something i could do for her. oh how i wish.

a new blogging friend who has been trying to conceive for a long time is now pregnant. now, i know that this isn't a done deal.. from reading other infertility blogs i think i understand that she doesn't have an easy road ahead of her, this isn't a pregnancy she can now just sit and enjoy. but i'm so excited for her, and thinking lots of warm and joyful thoughts for her, and i'm sending out hopes and wishes for an event-free 9 months.

about
i'm brooke, born in '73. i am currently a phd student in instructional technology. this is the blog where i capture all the neurotic, and the few non-neurotic, moments that seem to come with being a phd student (if you want to read less neuroses and more professionalism go to: oer's, dl's, reuse and culture: it's about a phd student researching digital resources in a multicultural world). i have been from eugene, oregon for a long time.. 8 years specifically (its my home now, but i grew up in southwestern virginia), but now i'm here in logan, utah at utah state university. after finding my roots in eugene i never could have expected that i would leave that liberal oasis and head to utah. but i did and there are days when its a blessing and days when i'm tempted to go back to oregon and beg the folks at lost valley educational center to let me move in. but i won't leave because there are days when this process is better than any kind of high i could ever imagine. what else? i collect things, i have 2 cats, 2 kayaks, 2 laptops (i'm a geek - one mac, one pc). i can be emailed at brookesblog@rivervision.com.
