OK, I give...

  • January 2001:  Close to the end of grad classes (I took an independent study, Soc of Self, and Teaching Sociology that spring), beginning to work on my first comprehensive paper (which I ended up defending second...).
  • January 1995:  I had gotten in to Carleton early decision the month before.  Slacking like crazy in my last semester of high school.
  • January 1989:  Sixth grade.  Sixth grade was the worst.  Badbadbad.  I didn't really have any friends.  I was playing the piano and learning the oboe, and starting to play USYSA soccer since I couldn't play Parks & Rec anymore.
  • January 1983:  Kindergarten.  I believe my teacher was Mrs. Langley.  Elizabeth and I were completely inseparable.  (Look at the cool thing that she's doing right now here.)
  • January 1977:  I was a newborn.  In my first month of life, I would be a difficult nurser and lose one pound from my birth weight.  I liked bottles of soy formula much better.

I just got e-mail back from Dr. Demerath (he says hello, BTW). He is indeed leaving in May, but he thinks I'd be a good match for the department. If I'm completely set on sociology of religion he advised me to go somewhere else, but pointed out that religion can be applied to almost any aspect of life.

I'm still interested and have asked for more information. I've been mulling this over for a while, and we'll see. Further ruminations will be in my journal....
