I'm sure Dr. Isis will be ready when Little Isis is old enough to Photoshop. Me, not so much.
However, I do feel an inexplicable urge to make a diorama. Maybe I can make one that represents what we hope to accomplish at our department retreat tomorrow.

Life has been proceeding more or less apace, and it feels like a long time since I've sat down and contemplated anything, much less my Anyway Project goals. At the same time, all this business is a series of steps on the way to actually many of the things done. I hope that's true of all of you!…
Diorama? Every department has its dinosaurs, so why not make a Cretaceous diorama?
