My confession
Jan. 30th, 2017 01:32 pmI have a confession to make... I... am a geek.
OK, perhaps that isn't so much a confession as much as it is a known fact. But to be a bit more to the point, I absolutely love BEING a geek!
Having returned to work now that my surgery is over and my recovery is well under way, I feel particularly inspired to get back to doing artsy things. My brain is racing as I think about cooking research I want to do and foodie projects and jewelry, and sewing and organizing, etc,. etc. I want to get outside and do some gardening. I want to see friends. I want to go down various rabbit holes and link together concepts to help us gain insight and understanding into who, where, why, and what. I want to look seriously into dance research again and focus less on performance and more on theory and teaching others. I want to inspire and be inspired. I want to work with my students and keep the fires lit under their butts so that they too will become infectious history geeks. I want to make all the things, teach all the classes, and learn all the things. Is it possible to do it all? Of course not! At least not in one lifetime. But I'll be darned if I'm going to waste any time when there are so many cool things to be done!
Look out world! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's... geek-dude!
