I'm glad not all those who wander are lost, because otherwise I'd be up the proverbial creek without the proverbial paddle. I'm a globe-trotting academic who'd rather do just about anything than hold a forty-hour a week job (leaves no time for the fanfiction, y'know). I teach English abroad, reside in Northern California in between gigs, and am contemplating a PhD in comparative literature . . . someday.
