Busy!

So it turns out that I can post directly from my email, although it takes
quite a few days for the post to be reflected online ... which I think is
kinda lame.

Anyway, I have been posting seldom for 2 reasons:

1. I have been terribly busy with work and work related travel ... Really,
I am sick of travelling. Sick of starting my day in a a snow storm and
ending it on the Atlantic coast in 75 degree weather.

2. My laptop died 3 weeks ago and I have been waiting for my new laptop to
arrive. Till it arrives I do not have online access at home and I do not
have time to blog at work.

A word for my old laptop: It was an iBook that saw me through grad school
and died of old age. The display failed and then the hard drive crashed -
or at least some sectors I am assuming got corrupted. All my important
data is backed-up, and hopefuly the rest I will be able to retrieve
through fire-wire once my new laptop arrives. It was a good laptop and
its time had come.

This is my new <a href="http://www.apple.com/macbookpro/">laptop</a>. 15"
MacBook Pro, 2.33GHz, Intel Core 2 Duo, 2GB SDRAM with a 120GB Hard Drive.
It should arrive tomorrow.

Every once in a while I make a mental note of things I intend to blog and
once my new laptop arrives I will try to catch up on the list.

Other than that life as usual ... same old humdrum.
