hey chicas,
so i turned in my a.i. application today and for some reason being on campus felt strange and so far removed, which was a very wierd feeling. being at home with ethan, i have no intellectual stimulation at all and dream of teaching again. but being on campus made me want to become a stay at home mom, which i didn't expect. nor do i think we can afford it. maybe it just felt wierd to be on campus with ethan, but this was the first time i felt like i didn't belong there. and i've been a part of the english department since 1996! huh.

hey you,
sorry i missed you. i was there earlier today. i *so* know what you mean. i think we're both very similar: we like working and the intellectual stimulation of academia, but we're also very maternal and want to be home all the time (well, most of the time). we want the best of both worlds. we want to raise our children the best we can, while all the way cultivate our own identities. i've been affiliated with the department since 1997 and, even today, i feel like i'm only visiting.
more soon...
