um, fine, so maybe it's not really my own personal blogathon.
i have discovered an even higher calling than the weblog: email scrabble. i've been reading stefan fatsis's word freak compulsively for the last several days, prompting me to do terrifying things like download all the acceptable 2, 3 and 4-letter words and attempt memorization. my obsessive online scrabble habit is become the butt of lots of office jokes, but that's fine--it's my last day. i've been playing myself for the last couple of days almost continuously, since there's really no more work to do. anne and kt, watch out. i'm coming for you.
speaking of the office, guess what. lots of people offer you jobs when you can write and do statistics. yay!
...and in other news, no more roommate issues because my mother arrives tonight and i'm staying with her. thank God.

by day a political scientist! by night a significantly less intellectually responsible political scientist!

welcome to my blog. i'm a ph.d. candidate in political science at yale, a native midwesterner, and a happy californian. right now my research is about armed organizations and how they organize their violence against noncombatants, or fail to. i'm also interested in intentional community, gender in the academy, grad school pedagogy, fat politics, the religious left, my partner, our local farmers' market and idiosyncratic capitalization practices.
