about

my name is jenn. i’m 28 and a PhD student in music theory. i’m originally from new york, did my undergraduate work in connecticut, and have now somehow found myself in kentucky.

my blog doesn’t have a theme. i just write whatever is rolling around in my brainspace:

 my mom passed away on january 5, 2012. i write about that a lot.

 i’m recovering from an eating disorder and self-harm. i was at the renfrew center and columbia presbyterian eastside. i write about recovery a lot, too.

 i had knee surgery on may 3rd. and since it has disrupted my entire life, i write about that pretty often.

besides all of that, i’m a runner (although right now i’m relegated to hobbling) and a yogi. i teach power yoga and the occasional spin class. i can’t cook worth crap but i can bake like a champ. my family is my life line, but since moving to kentucky i’ve discovered that friends can become the family you didn’t know you had. i’m sarcastic and have a mouth like a trucker. i hate doing dishes and putting away my clean laundry.

this blog isn’t the right read for everyone, but give it a whirl – maybe you’ll enjoy it!
