About Ramblings of a Hopeless Khowaga

Welcome to my Web site. My name is Chris, and I’ll be your host. I\'m an opinionated, snarky, gay academic with a predilection for the history, the Arab world, languages, photography, food, and music. I live in Austin, Texas. You can read more about me, learn 100 random things about me, and if you’re wondering what the heck a khowaga is, click here. Feel free to browse, read, and leave comments!

Writer’s Block

It’s been a while.

My self-appointed critic, in the parlance of Amelia Peabody, has been on me.  “You haven’t written anything,” he tells me.  And so, I think about what to write.  And I think.

At about 12:30 this morning, I had a brilliant idea.  I remember thinking that it wouldn’t go so well with the photo above, but it was an idea.  Naturally, I didn’t write it down, and I don’t remember what it was.

Such is life.

Classes are back in session at the university.  This means that there are a lot of people floating around who weren’t there last week, and I’m feeling a bit claustrophobic as a result.

There was also a squealing session in our reading room worthy of Sex in the City (and just as annoying) in a mixture of Arabic and French: Habibi!  Bonjour!  Zayyik?  Tout va bien?

Khowaga does not squeal, thank you very much.

At any rate.  I am here, I am alive, and I am very much uninspired.  Inspiration will strike, and I shall write again, never fear.

Just … not today :)
