I know, excuses, excuses. Last week the science was working extremely well, and there was some personal drama to be dealt with. And now I’m sick. Blech. I’m fighting it off with loads of sleep and decongestants, but one of those doesn’t leave me with much time to write, and the other doesn’t really leave me in the right state of mind to do so. Disclaimer – I’m writing this post immediately after taking some Nyquil (yes, at 8PM on a Sunday), so if it doesn’t make sense, it’s not you, it’s me.

Things that I am planning on posting in the somewhat near future:

• Damien Rice show review
• Fifty on their Heels and The New Motherfuckers show review – but for those impatient types, the photos can be found here.
• Some more science-y type posts to actually explain what I do for a living (if you can call a grad student stipend a living). I care dearly about educating the general public about science – it’s just hard to get myself to talk/write about it after actually doing it for ~10 hours a day.

Also, I’ll be at the Bright Eyes show at Soma on Tuesday with a photo pass, so that should be pretty neat. Other than that, I think I’m going to be lying low until this cold blows over. Gotta rest up for my birthday on Friday! I’ll be turning 25 – time to start thinking about what I want to do for my quarter life crisis…
