Your mind gets burned / With the habits you've learned

First post from the new place, yay! I now have one box and random bags moved.

Other than forgetting my lunch - again - and some unfortunate spillage cleanup at work, and the part where I skipped lunch and still got out late, today was pretty awesome. Okay, maybe the awesome part was ordering at Panera, and having the cashier say, "would you like the pick two? A drink? A baguette?" and saying, "yes, yes, yes" when what I really meant was, "give me the whole menu, please. And the stuff they're serving next door, too! Food! Nom nom nom!"

Between my adventures in driving and the moving drama, this pay period is a lost cause.

Email, right. Gotta try that some time!

Good luck getting the publications out. Your academic connections are probably going to be of more use than my academic/industry connections, but I'll do my best to hook you up at the U of MD if I can. Academia has its benefits, tenure wackiness and all. Or possibly I just have warm feelings toward a place that made it my job to suck up knowledge like a Hoover. :-)

I do really really love academia. I hate that my work is not getting me lots of papers -- the only real currency in academia. Ah well, we'll see how it plays out! I'm convincing myself that maybe staying home and being a mom for a couple of years may not be the worst thing in the world. ;-p
