Not dead, just dead tired.
It feels odd finally having enough time to sit down and type for a few minutes. Since my last post, I have gone camping in Big Bend, eaten tons of breakfast tacos on the run, packed up my San Antonio apartment, moved all of the stuff to Houston, weeded and organized said things in Houston (in a garage in the heat no less), gone to a wedding in Austin, and also attended a family reunion in Nacogdoches. I guess I’m trying to get as much Texas in as possible before leaving.
I have also decided that east Texas is covered in cemetaries and donut shops.
I am officially registered for class (!) which is very exciting. I will be taking the following classes:
- SI 500 – Information in Social Systems: Collections, Flows, and Processing
- SI 501 – Contextual Inquiry and Project Management
- SI 580 – Understanding Records and Archives: Principles and Practices
- SI 581 – Preserving Information (2nd half of semester)
- SI 678 – Preserving Sound and Motion (1st half of semester)
My mom looked at me like I was crazy for being interested in all of these subjects (“That sounds boring.”), but I am really looking forward to being back in school and studying all of these things. It’s good to be a nerd.
And just because my photos from Big Bend came out pretty well, I’ll post a few …
- Ridge by the border
- Santa Elena Canyon
- Red and gray bird
- View from our Chisos Mountain campsite
- Campsite at sunset
- Baboon Mountain and canyon
My Flickr gallery is here, where I also have photos from aforementioned family reunion.
