Argh my updates have been sporadic and irregular lately. A thousand apologies to all of you who plan your calendar around by journal updates! 
Not a whole lot new going on here. Classes are keeping me very busy so far this semester. I only have one new prep, but it is a pretty reading-intensive class and I try to make pretty slides for the kiddies every day. Plus I'm trying to bust my ass and get a manuscript or two out this semester as well. One would be satisfactory--two would be above and beyond. I don't need a whole lot of pubs for tenure here, and getting a majority of them knocked out early certainly would take some of the pressure off me when tenure-time comes a-knocking.
My parents are coming to visit us here in NC for the first time next weekend. They'll get to see the house, the town, and the school. And for some sadistic reason, my father scheduled the departure time for Fayetteville at 5:30am on Sunday morning. Which means I have to wake up around 3am or so to get them to the airport with enough time to go through security. Needless to say, I'll be going back to bed after I drive home. But my dad is strange like that.

Wow, Arsenal are poor and you are good given the weekend's result. Your goal keeper was on fire, and the result was undeserved.
