Well, not really, but it’s the mildy funny joke I’ve been putting forward.

I’ve finished work. Wow, that’s a big statement. It represents one of the biggest decisions I’ve ever had to make, and ends another chapter of my life. But with this ending comes a new beginning as a grad student.

So what have I been doing with my newfound free time? Nothing terribly exciting. I spent the weekend building a patio deck–not your traditional ‘good time’ but it was social, and I could use to be outside more often.
I’ve also been putting some time into upgrading my laptop, it hasn’t gotten a lot of use lately and has been starting to show it’s age (almost 2 1/2 years). Upgrading to a 5400RPM drive (from a 4200RPM one) makes for a large gain in performance.
Besides that, I’ve been kept busy (well, busy enough) with my IEMC related duties.
