It's been nearly a month since I made an update. Tonight I can rectify the situation and procrastinate at the same time! Things are getting to be rather crazy in my line of work. Midterms are coming up this week (hence the non-study procrastination) and officially Spring Break is coming up next week. Unfortunately, it turns out that graduate students are expected to be working through the week. (The Real World rears its ugly head a few years earlier than I had expected!) At least there won't be the 800-lb gorilla of J.D. Jackson's electrodynamics weighing in on things over that week...
Work is also yielding some interesting prospects. I will likely need to make a trip out to General Atomics outside San Diego in the near future to work with the fusion group's plasma control system designers. Not bad for an after-finals trip, huh?
I also got something rather interesting in the mail today -- my first international Nigerian-419 scam delivered to my postal address. How they received my name and address is making me wonder... Anybody that would like to claim my $615,000 can simply provide me with all their banking information and a signiture, and I'll be sure to split things 60/40. ;) It's nice to see that the scammers threw away .78 euros trying to con me!
I've run across a hilarious web comic, which I will now be reading daily: Ctrl-Alt-Del. Two years of archives in two days. Pretty damn funny. (Did I mention procrastination?)
And, last but not least, should you not have enough blogtastic readings, you can check out one more: my girlfriend Kristen's. :)
