so i've been informed that i should update my blog, which i guess i should do more often. especially since i actually have some news for once. :) found out on friday that i will get the opportunity to teach two Intro to Sociology courses at the community college. i'm really excited about it and it means that i'll be leaving my graduate assistantship at the residence hall i've been working at since june. this is actually really good news, because the management of the dorm has been making some really icky decisions and i wasn't too happy in that situation anymore. i work with a lot of great people that i will miss a lot, but hopefully they will stay in touch.
i'll be moving into mike's old place and with two roommates we probably don't need a feline one. and a bunch of people i know are allergic to my little orange friend, so if you're interested in adopting him, let me know. i really want him to go to a good home. suddenly i realized that everyone who's reading this already knows all this shit. damn...need to be more creative and insightful.
let's see. i'm getting really anxious to go home in a few weeks. haven't been to iowa since september and i'm really looking forward to spending time with family and friends. rather than making the 14-16 hour trek in the old saturn, i found a cheap flight and will be heading home on the 20th. i have to say, there is something kind of nice about having some kate time in my car. i love singing loud and having some time to think about stuff. but by the time i get to kansas, i'm usually delerious from boredom or tiredness. there was time when i started talking out-loud and said this "speedometer, tachometer, odometer, gasometer." that's what happens when you're hopped up on diet mountain dew, skittles, and energy now tablets. :) so, this year i'll hop on a plane instead, will try not to sing loud on the way to dallas and then des moines, and will be nicer to my body by not ingesting a ba-shit-load of caffeine, sugar, and god knows what else.
my thirty minutes are up. time for bed.
night ags!
look at the sweet kitty...don't you want him to be your best friend?

About Me
- Kate :)
- I recently graduated with my Ph.D. in Sociology and I'm still trying to get used to the fact that I'm done with school forever. I've been teaching in my first faculty position since August 07, which is going well. Not sure what's next on the horizon, but I know I will figure it out. Currently, I'm living back in Iowa and readjusting to life in the Midwest. In general, I'm pretty laid back, funny, and open minded. Love movies, playing golf, takin' it easy with friends, drinking coffee, writing in my journal, road trips, traveling, beer, wine, and white russians, and monkeys. :) Hmmm...what else? I miss being close to friends who are far away, but it has been nice meeting new people and being closer to family. I think those are the basics. :) Thanks for reading.
