Time-lapsed Blogography Day

Twelve years ago today, on June 19, 2001, I had just returned from my exploratory trip to Tallahassee, where I scouted out the area around campus and secured an apartment made out of cinderblocks.

June 19, 2001 6:28pm Tuesday

I'm back. The trip went pretty well, and I've got a good apartment close to campus. Saturday, we got in around 2 and looked at several apartments. Then, we wandered around campus some. It looked like a typical college campus... a little ratty, half-urban half Tech-like. I wasn't too impressed, but it will be exciting to be somewhere completely new, with no preconceived notions. Sunday, we drove all over western Florida, to the beach and other small towns. I got pretty bored, but my dad wanted to look for historical sites. Monday, we found the apartment I ended up picking and finished the shopping by noon. We then drove back to Jacksonville and caught a plane out early this morning. I went straight to work and worked until 3.

Nine years ago today, on June 19, 2004, my sister got married in Barboursville, Virginia. It was incredibly humid, I read a poem, and then turned pages for the pianist.

Six years ago today, on June 19, 2007, I composed the Museday piece, Spikiest. It is still one of my favourite Museday fragments.

Five years ago today, on June 19, 2008, our project at work received the greatest email support request ever documented.
