dropout

Today is my first official day as a grad school dropout. Coincidentally, it is a Friday and I have very little work to do at my actual job. This void has left me with nothing to do but read things on the internet. I have a ritual of saving my favorite blog and cartoon-type daily sites for several months, then reading each one in one sitting, to imitate the marathon effect of TV. Today, however, I went for broke and read all of them together in one day. I laughed, I cried, I might have peed a little

A few of my favorites:

mommyblogs:

yatima.org

smartypants.diaryland.com

I love open letters. GOD I love open letters.
