A little apology...

So, I've been totally MIA lately. I want to apologize - I had two major grant application deadlined and my qualifying exams (to keep me in my PhD program) which, with their powers combined, totally ate up my free time. But that's all done, so I'm back, and will be blogging again soon!

Hi there! I just came across your blog for the first time and I really dig it! I'm also a PhD student who recently completed my qualifying exams. Congrats and I can't wait to read more!

And I thought you escaped to Brazil with the crazy money you won in the contest.

Did you pass?

Congrats on passing your exam! That's a big step! The two or three months before my general exam were some of the most stressful of my life...
