Still Here
Another month, another chapter or two drafted. That's all for now.
Well, not completely "all," since it is probably significant that I have made it past "Paczki Day" (our local southeastern Michigan nod to Polish pre-Lenten customs) without significant artery cloggage (I hope). You may be familiar with these by another name in the Czech Republic, but I guarantee that they were delicious in Michigan, as Kitchen Chick attests. Fortunately for Ann Arborites, there is a wonderful "European" restaurant (it's actually more Polish) called Amadeus that made paczki again this year. The remaining challenge is, "how do we pronounce it?" (Americanized, Czech-like, or in the Polish manner, listen here.)
My goal now is to give up procrastination Lent. :-)

A graduate student in music and anthropology writing a dissertation about music in Moravia, the eastern third of the Czech Republic. At some point, the Czech Republic's "second city" (that would be Brno) captured my attention, and I've since been blogging about events, arts, music, and other stuff—basically whatever interests me in and around the cityscape. I'm not living in Brno now, but I keep up with the cultural pulse from afar as best I can.
