Two Months Into Grad School Update

October 5, 2020 / lfreymiller / Leave a comment

Hello All, Yes, it's been a while. I started grad school - so taking three classes plus teaching two sections of English 101. [Insert all the grad school/ teaching cliches here about work and balance and writing and ] Publication Updates: I got another short story published. The research paper I helped write (and then … Continue reading Two Months Into Grad School Update

A Sudden Realization About Gender

July 15, 2020 / lfreymiller / Leave a comment

Hello All, It turns out that today is International Non-Binary Persons Day. I really have no idea what that means or how it helps, but hey, I'll take it. As you probably know, I am non-binary. I have been all my life, but I didn't have the terminology or understanding to "come out" until I … Continue reading A Sudden Realization About Gender

Here Are My Thoughts on Teaching in the Fall

July 8, 2020 / lfreymiller / Leave a comment

Okay, so there's a lot going on with education and I know about .0001% of it. I have never wanted to be a teacher. I still do not. I don't want the power or the responsibility that comes with it. That said, I do think in the great overhaul that is/will/should be taking place, education … Continue reading Here Are My Thoughts on Teaching in the Fall

Dependence Day 2020

July 5, 2020 / lfreymiller / Leave a comment

Hello Everyone, Yesterday, July 4th 2020, was once again Dependence Day. I know that a lot folks are confused. Some people mistakenly call it "Independence Day". Don't worry, I'm here to set the record straight. In 1776, a group of wealthy white people used poor white people, black people and international aid to continue colonizing … Continue reading Dependence Day 2020

Back By Popular Demand

July 3, 2020 / lfreymiller / Leave a comment

Here's another life update for those with the desperate desire to receive an update from Idaho. I am still here. I am still breathing in and out most of the time. Yesterday I saw a moth the size of my palm. It looked as though it had just emerged from its cocoon. It was wobbling … Continue reading Back By Popular Demand

Shelter in Place: Day 72

May 29, 2020 / lfreymiller / Leave a comment

Hello Dear Readers, Three days remaining until I leave Oakland. I really can't express enough how much living here has changed me or how honored I have been to be some infinitesimal part of the ecosystem. The past few days have been difficult. The past few weeks have been difficult. The past few months have … Continue reading Shelter in Place: Day 72

Shelter in Place: Day 69

May 26, 2020 / lfreymiller / Leave a comment

Hello All, Less than a week now until I leave Oakland. Today was a scorcher as they say. I went on an early morning walk with a writing friend (distanced, of course) and even then the sun was beating down. It felt good to see Oakland again. Most of my time here I spent walking … Continue reading Shelter in Place: Day 69

Shelter in Place: Day 68

May 25, 2020 / lfreymiller / Leave a comment

Hello Friends, It's getting down there. I have about a week remaining until I depart for Idaho. Today we moved out most of the apartment furniture and thanks to the divine nature of the Oakland sidewalks, most of it has been taken off to a new home. I, too, am in search of a new … Continue reading Shelter in Place: Day 68

Shelter in Place: Day 65

May 22, 2020 / lfreymiller / Leave a comment

Heyo! 10 days left in Oakland. I took a walk this morning for the first time in a while. I get really stressed out about seeing other people. And especially people not wearing masks or keeping their distance. I guess there is some "debate" going on about wearing masks. Which makes no sense to me, … Continue reading Shelter in Place: Day 65

Shelter in Place: Day 64

May 21, 2020 / lfreymiller / 2 Comments

Hello All, Today I cleaned. Cleaning helps me keep my anxiety at bay. It's nice to feel like I'm achieving something even if it won't last. I have eleven days left before I leave Oakland. I keep thinking about what my life looked like before shelter in place. Every day I took BART in to … Continue reading Shelter in Place: Day 64
