It’s been a long time since I published something here.  I just sort of got out of the writing habit.  I also suspect that I haven’t been doing much stuff that has been interesting over the last eight months or so, which means there hasn’t been much to write. At any rate, there is now.  […]

It shouldn’t really come as a surprise to anyone that I’ve been less than prolific in my posting over recently. I had that whole “job search” thing going on, the semester was ending, and it was the beginning of the summer bringing some really nice weather. So, where to start after six weeks of radio […]

The last week has been very busy, and this week is only going to be busier. In four days I leave for the ACPA / NASPA Joint Meeting in Orlando. The main focus of things for me this time around is, as I have mentioned, the job search I’m conducting. When I last updated a […]

One of the best parts of my job has always been that I have the ability to make my own schedule. This isn’t a 9-5 sort of job, so we don’t have to stick to a 9-5 sort of schedule. That means if I want to go in from 9-5 on Monday, and Tuesday, but […]

To Whom It May Concern: I’m great. Give me a job now. KTHXBYE, Mike As some of you may already be aware, I’m currently in the process of a job search. The “why” of the situation is quite simple: I’m finishing up my third year as a Resident Director, and I feel I’ve gained all […]

I’ll be back in Connecticut for about a week or so starting Tuesday night. While this means no playing in “The Wheatie” tomorrow, it certianly almost guarantees a trip or two to Foxwoods while I’m in the neighborhood. Drop me a line or give me a call if you’d like to hang out for poker […]

In my last post, I alluded to the fact that I felt strangely about yesterday. After doing so, I simply talked about how I hadn’t slept and completely left you, the reader, in the dark as to what made yesterday so different than all of the other days. Now, I’ll try to get to the […]

It’s 6:30 AM. I’m in my office. I’ve never seen Tower B so quiet. The lobby is empty, and the elevators are still. Right now, this place feels emptier than it was over the summer. You might be asking yourself, “Why are you up so early, Mike?” To which I would be forced to reply, […]

Man, that was tiring. For those of you who are unaware, the couple of weeks was taken up by RA Training and resident arrival here on campus. What that meant for me was basically very very little time for myself, and a lot of work. To top it all off, I signed up for duty […]

Somewhere around a few days ago, you may have started to ask yourself, “Where did Mike go?” While it may appear that I’ve disappeared–given that I’ve not been on IM, or posting, or showing up places, or calling people–I am, in fact, still here. Sort of. It’s RA training time! This past Sunday, the RAs […]
