Random Thoughts

I had to get up just after 4 a.m. today to bring Anita and Maya to the airport. So now I am at work with almost nothing to do until the person I am working with gets here.

I have been in Austin now about 3 and half weeks. So far things are going pretty well, but not much excitement since getting moved in. I am STILL waiting to be put in the system as a University of Texas employee because they have a lot of red tape for incoming postdocs. Hopefully it will be resolved by the end of the month.

I am flying to Chicago on Wednesday for Thanksgiving and will meet up with Anita and Maya. It will be nice to be back with family on Thanksgiving, it's been seven years since I was in Illinois for the holiday.

Illinois -> Delaware -> Maryland -> Texas!

A new home and a new template (which should fix some issues) -- from blogger-templates.blogspot.com. I also switched to Bloggers comment system, since Haloscan started archiving old comments unless you paid them. Blogger's comments have gotten better, but I have added the word verification to stop spammers.

However this means the old comments aren't here, I could move them manually, but I think I'll just leave it.

Hopefully, I'll return to posting at least weekly soon.

We really need to do something about this Bird Flu
