A Nice Day for Not Blogging

That's what yesterday was, at least. It was a gorgeous spring day here, which we spent mostly outside, first doing some errand-running, and then some lounging in the sun reading and napping. I didn't even try to keep track of what was posted on other blogs, and I didn't miss it all that much-- it was much more entertaining to watch the dog patrolling the back yard against squirrel incursions.

Spending a slow day yesterday means that I've ended up with an awful lot to do today. In fact, I'm typing this from my office (yes, before 10:00 on Easter Sunday), and heading down to the lab once I finish. Expect the slow blogging to continue for much of this week, which is going to be a busy one.

Happy Easter to those who celebrate it in a manner more traditional than mucking about with vacuum systems (though re-starting the long-dormant turbopump does have a certain amout of Resurrection symbolism...). It's every dog's favorite holiday, after all...

Do you have any recommended reading on the chaos theory? I've been noticing mentions of it everywhere lately, and it's something I'd like to read up on.

Also...does high school physics ever expand into interesting things like chaos theory? So far all we've covered are Newton's Laws, and formulas for things like force, motion, friction, projectiles, etc.
