spring break
sciencewoman | March 11, 2009Even though it's spring break, I'm in my office today because I need access to some software and datasets that I don't have at home, and because, frankly, I work more efficiently and with less guilt at school than at home. (Unless I'm blogging, that is!)
I didn't ask very many colleagues about their spring break plans, maybe because the internet consensus was that spring break was a time to recuperate from teaching and get some research done, and those were basically my plans, too. (Plus taxes, whee!) I assumed my colleagues here at Mystery U would do some variation on the same themes.
So…

As for me, all I know is that I am ready for a break. Even if "break" translates into "a week of working on research and taxes without having to teach class."
Figure 1. A friend of the blog sent this to me and I decided it was quite appropriate for this time of year.
