The downside of this semester is that I am dog tired. Having 3 classes with exams all at once wasn't a good idea when I still have to work 40+ a week. I haven't had a day off in weeks. On the upside, I can afford to get the room reshingled. If the damn roofers will ever show up. I may also have a slightly different teaching arrangement and a reduced workload next semester, more on that later!
So a big shout-out to my coblogger, two weeks into it and we've already got Boingboinged! Great work Scicurious!!!! We'll be getting a bit of a redesign around here as well, some drastically needed blogroll updates, a category revamp, and who knows what else. Neurotopia will be focusing more on disease states in the future.
