A (sub)Urban Catharsis

Wasting time...

I liked the title of my last post so much, I decided to make it the title of my blog. I'm telling you, sometimes I surprise myself with my literary creativity! I also came across this fabulous quote, at right, from Joseph Epstein. I'm not exactly sure where the quote is from, but I plan on finding out so I can add it to my already too-big summer reading list. For those of you who knew me in high school, yes, I do still keep a quote book, but I'm not nearly as dedicated to writing things down as I once was, so the rate of collection has slowed waaaay down.

I'm quickly learning that summer is a down-time at my new job. It shouldn't surprise me, considering it's still a school, but if the last 3 days are any indication of the next month and a half, I'm going to be posting A LOT more often. Not that I mind some down time, but unlike my former job, I can't just leave and pretend to "work from home" (something I justified as comp time from all of the extra hours I put in over the school year). I'm here for the full 8 hours, baby!

Hey sweetie -

I really like the quote! And being in somewhat procrastination mode, I did the google thing to find out where it is from, and I think this might be it (if you haven't already found it yourself :-)
