		<title>Speaking of Wasted Money</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The fact that the City of Greensboro has so far paid an alleged marketing firm about three thousand bucks for this piece of crap is, strangely, not a surprise to me given what I&#8217;ve seen of the city&#8217;s other negotiations with web design firms. But good god. I could have come up with something better [...]]]></description>

In case you&#8217;re interested, I&#8217;ve finally added a Pittsburgh photo gallery alongside the ones for my other assorted hometowns and the other photo galleries.

		<title>Traveling</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
It&#8217;s a traveling sort of week.
On Saturday, I flew up to Pittsburgh to meet Mark. I usually drive, but the weather was iffy, and I found a really cheap flight. All went well until the second half of my trip home on Tuesday. That was the part where my plane left LaGuardia but came back [...]]]></description>

		<title>God and the County Commission</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am now officially embarrassed to be a resident of Forsyth County. I can manage to blame Virginia Foxx on Yadkinville and Wilkesboro, but it&#8217;s hard to deflect this one.

		<title>Sunday Afternoon in Winston-Salem</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Just thinking aloud. If you&#8217;d suggested to me five years ago that terms like &#8220;search committee&#8221; and &#8220;tenure track&#8221; would loom so large for me right now, I&#8217;d have laughed you out of the room. I&#8217;m sometimes a little freaked out at the way the past couple of years have played out for me.
Completely unrelated: [...]]]></description>

		<title>Trees</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As much as I dislike sparkling new subdivisions built on cleared land denuded of trees or any other natural vegetation, this then and now set is a reminder that even many of the older, tree-lined neighborhoods we love so much today didn&#8217;t always look that way. So maybe there&#8217;s hope for those far-flung McMansion districts [...]]]></description>

		<title>Twentysomething (a/k/a Delayed Queer Puberty Syndrome)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Inspired by a project at work, I&#8217;ve been re-reading some of my old journals for the past couple of nights. It&#8217;s the first time I&#8217;ve really dragged them out in ten or twelve years, and so far I&#8217;ve gone through 1980 and 1985. Strangely enough, I like 1980 a little better. Of course, I was [...]]]></description>

		<title>16 February 2004</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Six years ago today, at about this time of night (9:00 PST), Mark and I were in the back of a very long line outside San Francisco&#8217;s City Hall in order to spend the night outside in the rain. Why? So that we could be married the next morning, along with several thousand other couples [...]]]></description>
