Monday, 28 August 06 :: agh.

i'm up late thinking of all the idiotic things i've said in the last month, stuff i've not done, worrying about how this money deal is going to happen as i move into my midlife crisis, which should happen just a couple of years after i get this damn degree, and hopefully after little brooke, ph.d. enters this world, either by birth or adoption. anyhow. i really am an idiot. and i hope people will forget what i've said. i doubt it. but hopefully other people will understand i'm simply trying to get my feet underneath me. *agh* and that i'm finally starting to realize i'm no longer in eugene. *double agh* and i'm starting to rethink telling bbpd that i really hate the book he gave me to read on friday. (he DID say i may not like it, BTW) because that might just step right back into idiotic behavior. luckily i have 2 other books to read right now -- along with stuff about to come from class -- so i don't need to go back and get another one from him for awhile. though, maybe this asking for stuff to read from bbpd is one of the very few non-idiotic things i've done since i've been here? i can only hope so, i can only hope that will help redeem all my other idiotic behaviors.

now that i've confessed my idiocy sins, its time to go to bed. first day of class tommorrow. i should get to work by 10 (we start things late at my lab), at the VERY latest. gotta get 5 hours in, along with a long class.

unfortunately tuesday, i gotta be in class at 8.30am. oh my goddess. sorry, but thats just dumb (no offense to the professor who is holding said class, they must be a morning person). but if i end up getting into the 4.30 class, i'll drop the 8.30am class.

okay. that was just whacky. i know, i should be happy for my laid back - don't get into work till 10am - life. :P

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.
