Who reads this anymore?

Who even really cares?

So here's a real update. Teaching is going well. I love it. Is it a bad thing that I care more about my students and their general well-being than the cirriculum?

Um...CR is kinda fun. I get to go to IC almost every weekend. I also get IC people to come to me.

Going to Chicago next weekend so see my brother, sister-in-law, and nephews.

Going to Chicago the weekend after that to see Wicked and more importantly LIZ!!!

That's about it.

Here's my obligatory post for Steve Irwin.
