		<title>The Mid-Semester Doldrums</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s officially reached that point: the point when you can&#8217;t believe how far into the semester it already is, yet you simultaneously can&#8217;t believe how far you still have left to go. The point when you are bored with class and want it to be over already, but you are starting to dread those looming [...]]]></description>

		<title>Updates and Whatnot</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You (assuming anyone still reads my blog) are probably tired of all the posts wherein I apologize for being a slacker. So I&#8217;m just going to skip that part and get on with it.
School&#8217;s going pretty well. I&#8217;m three semesters into my master&#8217;s, and I should have two more semesters after this one. (It&#8217;s supposed [...]]]></description>

		<title>Flu</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I promise I&#8217;m not trying to turn this blog into a chronicle of my various health ailments, but last Thursday I woke up feeling pretty miserable, like maybe I&#8217;d been run over by a car in my sleep. I went to school and work anyway because I&#8217;ve already missed quite a bit so far this [...]]]></description>

		<title>Vertigo</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Friday morning I woke up feeling slightly queasy. It wasn&#8217;t too bad at first, but by the time I was almost ready to head out the door, the room had started to spin, so I decided to stay home. I went back to bed and promptly slept for about two and a half hours more, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Because I Really Suck at Posting</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I keep telling myself that I&#8217;ll get back in the habit of posting regularly, but for some reason it keeps not happening. It just might have something to do with the piles of reading and homework that I have to do every night. And the rest of my time is spent either taking care of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Because I Suck at Posting</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Cicada informed me today that I suck at posting. And what could I say? She&#8217;s right. I&#8217;ve been especially lazy about blogging this summer. I figured I should do something about it, so I&#8217;m posting now even as I speak.
Updates on the Kids
I&#8217;m frequently surprised at the things that come out of Lego&#8217;s mouth. Today [...]]]></description>

		<title>One Year Older and Wiser Too</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Friday was my birthday, and I&#8217;m still trying to get used to the fact that I&#8217;m now 28. Yeah, I know it&#8217;s not really that old, but I&#8217;m starting to feel not quite so young anymore. Anyway, it was a nice birthday, though most of the fun happened the two days beforehand. Brinestone&#8217;s mom and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Updates and Stuff</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been a major blogger slacker lately (moreso than usual, that is). I&#8217;ll choose to blame it on finals and all that stuff, but I guess that excuse doesn&#8217;t work so well now that school&#8217;s over for the summer. But I&#8217;ve still been keeping myself busy with various projects, like continuing to work on Brinestone&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>Car Repairs, pt. 3</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So I&#8217;m finally just about finished fixing Brinestone&#8217;s car. There&#8217;s still a little work to do, but it&#8217;s mostly minor. It&#8217;s been a fun couple weeks full of amateur metal working. All I had to work with was a dremel, a drill, and a hammer, but I think I did pretty well with what I [...]]]></description>

		<title>Car Repairs, pt. 2</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Work on the Beagle has been coming along pretty nicely. Over the past week I&#8217;ve managed to swap the fender, replace the headlight and grille, and start replacing the headlight and bumper brackets. It&#8217;s starting to look like a real car again&#8212;a horrible mismatched monstrosity, but a real car nonetheless. And luckily it&#8217;s been warmer [...]]]></description>
