Wednesday, 15 March 06 :: heart of now

i'm heading to heart of now tommorrow evening. its going to be a long weekend. i kinda wish i wasn't leading a team. *sigh* i have mixed feelings about it. but, these days, i have mixed feelings about a lot of things. except the work that i do. i love the work that i do, and the people i get to do it with. i keep commenting on that at work. i think people are tired of hearing me say it.. but loving my work and the people i do it with is such a new thing. and then this utah thing. and. dammit. really, this loving what i do is a gut thing. i mean, that i love what i do is a gut thing, i mean, in the deepest recesses of knowing what is true for me. this is such not the norm for me. and it constantly surprises me.

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.
