A brief introduction and some promises

Err...I guess this is where I start
Preferred topics are in the blog description. To recap: Islam, politics, race, Rammstein, grad school, and television. These are subject to change, of course, so if you're looking for a particular theme to carry you through the coming years, prepare to be disappointed.
About me
A somewhat grumpy, socially awkward, mid-30s Muslim PhD student who loves cats, reality TV, Rammstein, MMA, and reading until my eyes bleed. I'm also married, have an 18 year old, and am TTC baby #2.
Sacred Vows
To you, future readers, I promise the following: 
  • I will never use white text on a black background. It's ugly and bad for the eyes.
  • I will never post cute pics of cats or kids and ask you to admire them.
  • Should I decide to stop posting or go private, I'll give you advance notice. I can't promise to update regularly, but I'll do my best. So, even if I haven't posted in a while (which will happen, as my laziness often overrides my will to communicate), it doesn't mean I've disappeared.
That's me and this is my blog. Keep in mind I'm new, so should I commit some grievous breach of etiquette, please be gentle in informing me of it.
