Housekeeping

Just a couple of quick notes on the run. Busy, busy, busy these days. The conference is next week. Everything is falling nicely into place - the program is taking its final shape, the swag is growing and we have 160 people registered so far - only a couple of more spots left. Lots of things to do over the next few days to make sure that everything goes well. The anthology is in its final proofreading phase - watch this place for the Big Announcement! I also have to clean the house as we are having guests on Sunday, and the kids are both at home sick today (and there is no school on…

It's been quite awhile since I've had a real vacation. Most of my "vacations" are spent traveling back and forth to relatives' and friends' houses, and this Christmas holiday has been no exception. After a jaunt to Ohio to visit family, I'm currently in the metro D. C. area visiting a friend, and hooked up with fellow Sciencebloggers Janet of "Adventures in Ethics and Science" and Evil Monkey of "Neurotopia" recently at an Irish pub here in the area (photographic evidence can be found here). I'll be traveling back to Ohio tomorrow for some more family time and to work on a house I still…

Apologies. I scheduled this post to appear this morning, and it's drawn a few comments. However, it also double-posted for some reason (we underwent an upgrade last night so things have been a bit wonky), and when I unpublished the duplicate, it also took the comments from the site. (I can see them here in the back end, and they say they're published, but they're not showing up to readers). I've alerted our technical guru, because unfortunately I don't have time to deal with this today.
We finally got to the end of the alphabet. Now I'll try to put everything together and provide a link to a complete blogroll. But you can keep telling me what good blogs are missing...
