I have to apologize. I have been busy. Between friends, family and holiday parties, I barely have time to laundry and groceries - let alone keep up with my favorite hobby (that's BD!)
I will write a quick update for anybody that still reads and cares: I am working triple-time in the lab right now because I am almost finished the lab-research portion of my thesis. Then I will have a few months of analyzing and modeling the results, the writing of manuscripts and then the defense at which time I will be finished my seriously long pursuit for the academic prize "PhD". I have a time-line to finish of 8 more months and I am sticking to my objectives with determination I have never previously known myself to have. My focus is narrow - and while it is extremely useful for finishing my task, it is horrific as I watch the rest of my life fall into literal pieces because of my indifference towards anything other than "finish PhD", the words that run through my mind constantly.
I go for months without clean clothes and linens. I have gone weeks eating nothing but rice/rice pasta and cheese (Translation: I have Celiacs disease so I eat nothing but easy, cheap, home-made, gluten-free casseroles).
My blog has fallen into a steady stream of boring writing - BUT, there is hope. I will return shortly with more punchy pieces full of Pin-up culture, rants about people that really piss me off and some little tid-bits about science that might interest you. I am also planning on launching some new blogs once the majority of my manuscripts are finished and I am only in the late editing stages ... and I will link them all together through BD, but I want to make them more specific and I have a graphic design bug that has been eating away at my little heart. I will also bring you more art. These are my new years resolutions as Bobbie Dawn, not so new blogger, still learning how to climb the ropes of the highly addictive "infomation highway" ... remember that?!? (I don't come to the blogosphere for information, but rather to find out about how informed other human beings are).
