No Waves

Hello,

Its been a long week full of sleep deprivation, dieting and disappointment.  Turns out a friend of mine, who failed med-surg last semester and was retaking it, was accused of cheating.  Now, I love this girl and don't think she cheated.  She didn't need to cheat.  But her history with the college is full of heated meetings with professors, some too quickly sent angry emails and other such excitements.  In other words, she made lots of waves here. 

What this week has confirmed for me is that if you make waves, they can find a way for you to go away.  Although sometimes in life we need to make waves, for now I'll just be here, keepin' my head down and gettin' my work done.  I suggest you do the same.

Love,
Molly

Slapped Together and Tinny


I've just edited a short podcast that I recorded in my closet with my iPad.  What that means is I sound like I have a speech impediment and there's lots of digital noise.  I promise next time I'll use the good microphone.  Would love some serious feedback on the new format.  Click on image to load.

Cold, Wet, Inspired

This rain and misery in central Kentucky has inspired  in me a renewed desire to get off my bootay and do a few podcasts.  I've written more than one show and half of another.  I'm excited about it.  Sadly, I've had to drop Libsyn. Although it brings me many of my favorite podcasts, for the novice like myself it is very difficult to use and costs the monies. I'm going to try PodOmatic and see how that works.  If it is also too hard, I'm bailing and going back to my free account over at Blog Talk Radio.  Because to heck with all that, I just wanna have some fun again, y'all.  
Can you tell I'm trying not to use curse words? Because I am.  No cursing is warranted here. 

I cleaned out my CafePress shop because there was a bunch of illegal stuff in there.  Like logos that don't belong to me.  But I do have $2 to my credit.  Thanks Kim!

Its time to hit the skids. 

Love,
Molly

There's Grit in There Somewhere


Yesterday was my last full day off for a while.  It was great.  I cleaned, I took a long bath, I watched True Grit (2010), I made pumpkin pie.  It was super, duper.  Grilled pork steaks on the grill for dinner and fun with petite bebe followed by an early bed time.  Going to have to kick it in gear tonight to get the rest of the laundry folded and put up.  I also watched a movie called "Somewhere" by Sofia Copolla.  Really lovely.  Go watch it for some very quiet, and at times painful, introspection.


Having some time alone at home (with the dogs, of course) has resulted in me starting to love my home.  I've enjoyed working on it a bit and hope to get more done this semester.  Its a work in progress.  Someday I'll have it how I want it. 

Our 1997 Buick Skylark P-O-S is about dead in the water.  After over $1000 spent, no much luck.  We are going to have to sell her "as-is" on Craig's List here pretty soon.  Couldn't be better timing. Ahem.  

School officially starts tomorrow.  I'm pretty indifferent.  Trying to think about how to plan my day.  That will include bebe drop-off, trip to book store and then some reading prior to class.  Don't know how much of that I'll actually get done before class tomorrow.  I'd be worried, but that's not how I roll these days.  I'll for sure be missing my friends who either dropped out or will now be a semester behind.

I love endurance races, I love endurance races, I love endurance races. 

Love,
Molly
