Well…
Posted by: lifeisbusting on: June 25, 2008
The waiting game is on. But it’s one in which I’m happy to be apart. There has been a feeling I’ve been waiting for, not a feeling of belonging but one of just being me. And I was. I made some mistakes and laughed at myself, I was met with helpfulness and they laughed at [...]
So, apparently I’m one of “those” people…

Hi. I’m currently typing from a computer on a campus in Charlotte, North Carolina. I have an interview here in about 3 hours. My suit is packed in my carry-on and I smell. Also, I paid for my own flight here to interview. (which, in this biz of higher ed, is UNHEARD of. My professor, [...]
A letter to my editor
Posted by: lifeisbusting on: May 29, 2008
Uh… God?
That sign you sent today by way of a FedEx package? Just wanted to let you know I got it. I mean I *got* it. My heart is open, so do what you think is best, of course. If this is where you think I should head next, I’m trusting. I have to say, [...]
Tongue Twisted
Posted by: lifeisbusting on: April 22, 2008
Life is moving so fast, sure things falling away by the second, that I am literally left silent.
I know years from now, I’ll be able to look back and see how the pieces fell into place but for the meantime, I am content to watch, unable to describe this current.

I’m here. In Hickville.
Moving was a little stressful but went well, the moving company was great and I’d definitely recommend them to anyone. Even if it’s going to force me to eat Ramen for the next 6 months. Saying good bye to R was sad but he was great, calming my fears and giving me [...]
My most excellent, very important not very interesting day
Posted by: lifeisbusting on: August 3, 2007
Today if I had to sum up my luck in life, today would be the day I would put in the dictionary for the word(s?) “Typical Greenleaf”. And if you know me, which you don’t because this bloggy-blog is totally anonymous (and I LOVE that) and NO ONE I know knows I have this thing. [...]

Posted by: lifeisbusting on: June 11, 2007
Exciting times here in greenleafgal land –
Let’s recap this weekend’s events shall we?
- Totally took 5 years off my life driving to the place I’m moving – including getting lost on the Southside, pulled over for speeding and a threat of jail, taking 6 HOURS when it should have been much, much less than that.

Well, that didn’t take long

My co-worker walked in today sat down across from me and says “So, I totally want to hear about this school thing.”
Me: “Oh, grad school?”
It was a nice conversation actually, she is really happy for me. And frankly, it felt good not to have to not say anything anymore. Quite honestly, I didn’t think it [...]
Road Trip!!

First of many, I’m assuming.
I’m off to the cornfields tonight to spend tomorrow looking at apartments.
I seriously hope I find something.
