it's been awhile
I moved from Elmwood to Williamsville two weeks ago. I am renting a room in a house with some people that I know. I like the place that I am living in a lot, though, I miss living in the actual city. It's easy for me to get around Williamsville and to Buffalo by day, but harder for me to get to and from the city at night (I don't own a car. There is busses at night, but only at certain times). But it's been good. It's less expensive than where I lived before, and its comfy.There is even a mini-spot coffee cafe in a grocery store a few streets away! I love cinco shakes.
I'm finished with all my master's classes, just trying to work on my thesis. Which has been a long process. I'm writing about the looting of the Iraq Museum in 2003 and the recovery of the stolen art by international organizations. It's a really interesting topic that I have enjoyed reading about, but I find it hard to actually write and organize what I have researched. Its been taking me a lot longer than I anticipated.
I am applying to PHD programs in history at UB, and a couple of other places. I think it is probably a long shot because they are selective, but I thought I might as well try. It would be cool to get "paid" to go to school, definitely. Hopefully I will be able to find a job that will work out for me here in Buffalo, if that doesn't work out. I really like the area, and would prefer not to move.
I hope everything is going well for all of you!

As far as internet radio goes, when I'm at work I go to Shoutcast. There are more than enough stations, and there is of course plenty of diversity. Here's the link: :::link:::
I'm such a media whore, and I'm so picky, that I haven't found the media manager with the right kind of features and interface for me. I think the latest iterations of Media Player have gone in the right direction but having to manage your media library is a very tedious process.
My music "seeking" software stays secret.
With that said, I do think it is a very intriguing idea to merge social networking with media tastes. It's an intresting take on the Web, and is a logical extension of things we have already seen like MySpace. I wonder if there is enough differentiation to justify its existence.
