Things Set in Motion



Instead of my typical kvetching about things during the first week of the semester, I decided to lay low in the blogosphere for these first few days and let my thoughts marinate.  Figuratively, I put my nose to the grindstone (and it actually did a nice trim on my moustache hairs to boot :) ) and worked diligently and complacently through all the typical start of the semester issues. 

Now that the week is almost finished, I can say that I think I am off to a very good start!  Things have gone, generally, very smoothly.  I have even done a bit of cleaning in my lab and lab office (I threw out a bunch of useless paper debris that had been accumulating all summer, wiped down most of the counter tops, donated some of the books I had duplicates of or no longer needed, and also emptied the pipe tobacco ashes from all my ashtrays.)  I am hoping to keep up this momentum and stay and feel very even keeled throughout the semester!

    Na, you'll be whining about something soon enough even though you have a very good life compared to many.

I appreciate all forms of comments on my writings. I find that I miss the sponteneity of coming to read them here when they were unmoderated. I believe I wrote less due to the moderation. I have decided to adopt limited moderation. Hopefully the prior problems with unfettered comments will not arise again. Please feel free to comment as you wish about the essays I write. I will maintain those comments that offer kind-hearted and gentle opinion... be it positive or negative. The opinions of your comments will, of course, need to have relevance to the post as well.
