In an effort to diversify my blogging experience (and maybe make a little extra cash doing something I like), I applied to HotelsbyCity.com to be a Dallas blogger. In essence, I post at least twice a week about some of the goings-on in the Dallas area, and I get paid for the number of people that hit up my posts. SO, you'll be seeing little reminders about my posts in case you're feeling charitable and wanna help me pay off my student loans by clickety-clicking your way over.
Beyond the money (which is likely to be minimal), I also wanted to get some extra writing experience--another line for the resume--should I ever seriously try to get a job writing somewhere. Which is a distinct possibility given my disgruntled stance in regards to my educational life at this point. AKA, the great nervous breakdown/quarter-life crisis of 2007. That's what I'm officially calling it. Charming, eh?
And beyond the aforementioned beyond, I just like writing about stuff to do in Dallas. I love it, and everyone should come here and visit me so they'll love it too.
So, without further ado, check out my other bloggy home and my post on the Dallas Museum of Art's "Arts & Letters Live" series. Bookish peeps, this one's for YOU!

Edit: And I've set a goal. A worthy, must-do-it-or-hate-myself-for-months goal. I am going to Albuquerque for a conference in 2 weeks. I WILL sit my ass down day and night if I have to between now and then in a valiant attempt to finish the bulk of my thesis. It will be in the hands of my director in two weeks and shortly after I hope it will go to the committee, and hopefully shortly after that I will defend. And I will be done. And I will coast like no one has ever coasted right into the end of my tenure as an M.A. student at Nameless Texas University. And I will do a happy dance, people. The happiest damn dance you've ever seen.
Listening: hard-drivin', thumping girl music
