Where the hell am I?
This is my blog. I write about dumb stuff that comes to me in horrible, haunting nightmares.
You’re weird. Tell me more.
My name is Alicia and I am a recent grad from the University of Washington with a double degree in Linguistics and Technical Communication. Don’t know what those degrees entail? Neither do my parents, who, unlike you, have been exposed to years of one-sentence descriptions, pamphlets, and the whole gamut of explanatory strategies to try to convey what I’ve been doing at college these past five years.
I started blogging in 2003. Back then, LiveJournal was all the rage, and blogging was just one exploration of the many ways I was capable of being an annoying teenager. I had a brief affair with Blogger before settling down here at WordPress, where I now exercise my right to be an annoying 20-something.
When I’m not studying or working, you can find me on my living room couch doing something useless online, watching classic episodes of The Simpsons, or napping under the Snuggie.

Comment by pishposh71 February 26, 2009 @ 1:11 pmI, too, have a degree in linguistics. Be prepared for a lifetime explaining what this is.
Comment by T. April 8, 2009 @ 9:56 pmRight before I graduated I asked my counselor what I could expect to do with my degree.
He stared blankly. Uh-oh.
I ended up as a copy editor for a newspaper.
You are a fine writer.
Good luck to you.
