The Dateable Dork

Well my dears, life here at the big H is officially in full swing.  How ridiculously exciting is this???  I swear, with each day that passes, I’m more and more convinced that coming here was the best move I’ve ever made, hands down, by far.  I am SO in my element here.  My brain in [...]

Just a little cuteness to start off the day.  : )

OMG, classes start this Wednesday.  How did that sneak up on me so quickly??? For the next 2 days (and even starting tonight), I’ll be going through organizational and mental preparation for the culmination of my transition from professional to lazy bum to full-time graduate student.  Holy crap, it’s really starting to hit me now.  [...]

A bunch of interesting things to report: (1) Cue porno music… I have officially had sex in my new Cambridge apartment.  Oh baby!  The NMP came over last night, and we went out for drinks, came back to my place so I could show off my mad decorating skillz, and went at it like horny [...]
