irish advent calender

dear friends,

luke just sent me this link to which i replied:

1. is that an advent calender made of beer (how irish!)
2. is that a drug-weighing scale? (how perpetually stolen from my high school!)

neither of these things has anything to do with my working,

ps- brother by another mother got offered a job at a little school in ct that rhymes with whale! that is of course neither here nor there in terms of the content of this post, but by the time i write another post it will be old news.

advanced style in academia

dear friends,

i was reminded this morning of how i love the olds (via an email forward to college humor of all things). i love my grannie. and i loved the ladies who are the subject of my masters paper. and i love the blog advanced style.

there are some stylish ladies around here that i certainly hope to grow up to be. see the one in the middle below:

or this one

crucially neither of them commit what i believe to be the #1 female academic fashion sin: use of a shawl/cape.

also, i really love tweed fabric.

vindication

dear friends,

i always knew in my heart that malibu was meant fot a sophisticated palate. and it is delicious.

love,
cam

ps- lukas sent me this and i watched it thrice. if any of you want to get me a pipe wrench fight tee for christmas, i would proudly wear it.

the sexuality is palpable after paul rudd's dance

dear friends,

i am sure i have spoken before about #1 celebrity crush, paul rudd (and maybe even how i met him while baracking the vote). but damn, if he didn't just entrance me again with his primal scream dance.



palpable friends, palpable.

ps- i meant to blog with my obama excitement, but work was busy. and not like i need to clear my head for 5 minutes so i'll blog busy, like gettin' down with county-level census data and finding meaningful and determinate variance busy.
