Ladies and germs, as you read this, I'm on my way to Anchorage, AK, and then to Unalaska. And let me tell you, after the hellaciously hot summer we've had here in DC, being out in the Bering Sea sounds awesome. But I'd never leave you all alone.
Coming back from their guest stints here this May are BabylonSista and Katherine. BabylonSista writes at political blog Conversation 101 and her own home on the net, Confessions of a Cybernegress. A lifelong Midwesterner, she spends her free time nerding out on sci-fi, experimenting in the kitchen, and trying to hide her new love of fashion. Katherine is a New Hampshire-based writer and taxonomist. She blogs about books, TV, food, knitting, and whatever else catches her interest at Kat with a K.
And there are are two new additions for this outing. Kay Steiger is the editor of Campus Progress, and a prolific, tough, funny feminist freelancer as well—and a long-time Friend of the Blog. Dylan Matthews is a junior at Harvard working part-time at the Washington Post. He DJs for the Record Hospital at WHRB 95.3. And he's also my frequent partner in pop culture, be it ironic Eclipse-viewing, or braving the crowd at Robyn concerts.
I know you'll enjoy their company here as much as I enjoy it in real life. The usual rules about being excellent to each other apply.
