Status update

I'm crawling my way towards a blog post of some substance. I've been paralyzed by a combination of factors, and writing it is like a war of attrition with my own inertia. Whatever. That's a teaser for you and motivation for me.

Meanwhile, I'm loving life in Ohio. Kira started classes this week, and we're falling into a pretty good routine. We send her off to class around 8:45, and I go for a jog around the neighborhood. I have something ready for her to stop in for lunch around 1:15, and I start cooking dinner between 5 and 6 usually. We get all our meat and eggs from Luginbill Family Farm, (The eggs are the best eggs I've ever had, and the meat is excellent - ground beef, ground pork, breakfast sausage, smoked sausage, and whole broiler chicken.), and veggies (tomatoes, potatoes, zucchini, acorn squash, butternut squash, cucumbers, bell peppers, hot peppers, sweet peppers, red and yellow onions), honey, and bread fresh from a farmer's market every Saturday. Food is good. Evenings have been some combination of DVDs, HBO, and/or reading. I'll have to do a separate post soon for the different beers we've tried.

I need to work on filling my time in between more productively than reading blog posts and fantasy football rankings. Today I filled out a survey and marked "home maker" as my occupation, though I don't think this home is particularly well-made. I've done some actual work as a consultant for the company I worked for in Maryland, but I don't think I want to keep working for them. I need to start doing the school search thing and some at least third- to half-assed version of GRE prep.
