We’re Here & We’re Queer

It’s been awhile since I’ve updated, but I haven’t given up, blogosphere! I promise. I have been quite busy with work & school & all of those other silly adult obligations and responsibilities. If you simply must hear from me, you should consider following me on Twitter because there, I ramble about things like Julie Andrews, reproductive rights and craft beer, all in 140 characters or less!

Speaking of Twitter, one of my new Twitter acquaintances recently posted something about the DC Queer Studies Symposium, coming up at the end of the month. In seeing this post, I was overcome with two emotions: excitement and suspicion. Excitement because, well, I am highly interested in queer studies, psychologically and in general. Suspicion because I have lived in this area for three years, am active in the LGBT community and go to the University of Maryland campus at least once per week. How have I not heard of this?!

After doing some research about the past years of the symposium and this year’s symposium, I have come to the conclusion that there is no way I am missing it. Here is the website. I suggest checking it out my MD/VA/DC followers, especially the sessions. The entire symposium is free (including the lunch and reception). Let me know if you are planning to come (which you should), and we can meet up for a session or two.

Hope to be blogging your little ears off again soon.
