I blog a fuckton, but don't worry- I won't die! I do this by not worrying if old news is old. Also, that reminds me. I was reading the book Work to Live, and while it had some promising ideas about not working a zillion hours per day, and some shocking horror stories about people who worked 100 hour weeks at Rite Aid and got paid only 30k per year, but I have to admit that I am skeptical about the overseas vacation bits. I'm not quite sure that if the Rite Aid guy only worked 40 hour weeks and got decent vacation, he'd be off in the Bahamas. I could believe 'and you'll be able to go and see the natural wonders of your state' because that seems doable or for grad students 'and you'll be able to see the tourist attractions of your city'.
