I mentioned August would be a hellish travel month. Beginning August 2nd, I drove to Chicago for YearlyKos, back to Iowa and grabbed the kids and dogs, headed to Ohio to visit family (including an almost-9-months-pregnant sister and her 18-month old son), headed out to Maryland/DC/Delaware for an impromptu road trip, back to Ohio, back to Iowa, to Wisconsin for a science conference, back to Iowa for the evening, then flew back to DC to pick up a friend, and then drove up to New York to meet up with many other Sciencebloggers for the weekend. Then back to DC, and back to Iowa this morning…
Little to no blogging for the weekend, unless I hit gold with some free wifi somewhere. Out of town. Will be back....

Tonight is the last pre-scheduled ClockQuote and there are no more re-posts in the pipeline! Does this mean I have to start blogging again? But when? I am working now!

This crept up on me - I was unaware it was so close yet. I just saw it and had to capture this historical moment: The 500,000th visitor came from Reading, UK. After all this time, I still wonder why so many people come here so often: is watching compulsive blogging akin to watching a wreck? You just can't stop yourself?

I'll be offline until Sunday evening (California time). This means comments you submit between now in then will dangle in the aether until I'm back online, but please don't let that put you off from commenting if you have something to say. Hope your weekend is a good one!

OK, I have scheduled to repost automatically some of the best clock-related posts. They will appear every day at 9am and 5pm from July 5th till August 12th. I hope you like them again.... Tomorrow, I'll schedule a bunch of ClockQuotes for the next month as well, every day at 4am.

I'll be leaving in one week and staying in San Francisco for one month. I'll be busy, to say the least. What should I do with the blog in the meantime? After all, it is the middle of the summer when everyone is travelling or enjoying the great outdoors and the online traffic is pitiful - my traffic is about half of what I had in April and May. So, I doubt I'll be penning long thoughtful essays (unless I get really inspired once or twice). I think I'll sit down one of these days before I leave and schedule for automatic posting a Clock Quote to appear every day around 4am for the next…
