Ok, beginning of week 2. It's going to be a LONG quarter. Challenge is good. I just need to figure out how to make the most of my 24 hour weekends (I've decided that that's all I can allow myself...)

Here are pictures of Italy, as posted by the lovelies, Jess and Mell (note. they don't seem to view well in Firefox):
Jess Album 1
Jess Album 2
Mell Album
Some of the pictures overlap, but they're fun to flip through when you have the time. Or I suppose you can hit up match.com for most of the solo images (kidding). :)

Otherwise, I'm still alive and kicking (perhaps a bit more flexibly thanks to Charlie's yoga class). Oh, and I've just added word verification to the comments section. Annoying spam. Thanks for pointing it out Matt.

And Mell, your recent posts are definitely making me think.

things on my mind (among others): mortality, emotions, pushing theoretical frameworks, negotiation, complexities of social organization, and Mr. Wind-Up Bird
