Placeholder entry

18 January 2006, 8:52 AM

No time to post lately. Briefly, some of what I've been up to:

  • Cleaning house.
  • Having a successful roundsing.
  • Reading submissions.
  • Finally doing last year's taxes (the ones that were due in April 2005).
  • Working.
  • Collecting things to post when I have time.
  • Sleeping badly all weekend.
  • Seeing Kam before she flies off to Thailand and Burma for a month.
  • Leaving NASA TV running in the background (in a window on my computer), on and off, to watch the launch of the New Horizons probe, which will fly by Pluto and into the Kuiper Belt nine years from now. The launch was scrubbed yesterday, postponed 'til 1:16 p.m. EST today, just over an hour from now. Sadly, I'll be in a meeting at that time.

Will write more at some point.

I read this fast and thought you were saying you were scheduled to be in a meeting at the time the probe enters the Kuiper Belt. I was like, damn, you *are* organized.
