Back again

So... I realize that it's been close to two years since I've written anything here. Consider it acknowledged, and now we can move on.


This week, three things have happened in a row that make me think I should get back into the game here.

MONDAY: I've been pretty seriously thinking about grad school the past week or so, and decided to revisit my thesis that I wrote with this project as an undergrad. Still fairly awesome, if I do say so myself.

TUESDAY: At my favorite used bookstore (holla!), I found a copy of The Curse, by Karen Houppert, which I immediately snatched (oho, see what I did there?) up.

TODAY: Tonight I got an awesome email from a gal in Portland who's working on something similar for one of her women's studies classes. I get emails from time to time, but for some reason tonight's convinced me to title myself Radical Menstruator.

Other things factoring into my decision to continue blogging:
  • My zine, Menstruator Extraordinaire, has been reviewed in Brazil, thereby making me an international writer.
  • Thinking about the Feministing redesign has me all excited about blogging.
  • Various smarty pants people keep telling me I'm a good writer.
  • I'm only working like half-to-three-fourths of a job right now, so I've got a good amount of time on my hands.
  • For the first time in a long time, I'm no longer stealing my neighbors' internets, so I can actually blog without giving myself a frustration brain-hemorrhage when things don't go through right.
Hope this goes well! Feel free to hit me up, because obviously my ego is enormous. :)
