Happy New Year's!

Ah, another year of the rooster.

According to the Chinese zodiac, I am a rooster. A metal rooster. This year is the wooden rooster. This has been your public service announcement.

Well friends and neighbors, we've entered the month of February, which has historically been a pretty crappy month. So far, it hasn't been crappy so much as just really really busy.

I presented at Departmental Journal Club on Friday, and that of course went well despite my freaking out about how it wouldn't. Then I spent the weekend sortof "coming down" off that adrenaline spike. The week so far has been decent, although with the V-day coming up who knows where things will go. I have a guy, so that's pretty darn good a start right there. We'll see!

Friday is coming!
