Ok all. Here’s the deal. I have tons to share, but I can’t share it yet as I’m wait­ing for con­fir­ma­tion on a few things. Plus I’m fin­ish­ing MAPSS. Every moment. Every Day. I have a week and a day until my thesis is due. Two weeks after that every­thing else is due (less actu­ally). And every­thing that I need to tell you all about (almost) is hang­ing on me fin­ish­ing. So that takes total pri­or­ity. I’m prob­a­bly not going to blog at all other than the dates in the title bar.

Once I pass those dates, things will change fast, and a lot of news will be flowin’.

In the mean time, I’m get­ting my phone back from R-Shack. Except it wasn’t my orig­inial phone. And dispite a promise that they would back up the data, they didn’t. So I lost a number of pic­ture (which is a lesson in itself). But more impor­tantly, I think I lost everyone’s con­tact number (this is espe­cially true for MAPSS people). So when you get the chance, give me a call and say hi! so I can get you back in the phone. Con­versely, drop me an e-mail with your digits.

Miss talk­ing to you all. Will write once I’m past the 18th.
