Back in Pasadena, and ready (I guess) to buckle back down to work.  I have a little bit of catching up to do, but it’s not too bad overall.  I also have to take a midterm tomorrow night.  I don’t … Continue reading →

Ok, cheesy title for a blog post, but that’s a little like how I feel.  Classes start again on Monday, and I’ve got to get myself back into the work-all-the-time mode.  I had a good vacation, saw a lot of … Continue reading →
