Alone again

• D is gone to a conference in Denver. It's his first poster session as a grad student, and he's the #1 author on the poster. I hope he's schmoozing with a lot of physicists; who knows when he'll meet someone who could give him a post-doc? Too bad it's not during the summer, I could have gone with him and seen my folks. Actually, my dad was here this weekend for a visit.
• Must do lots of preparation, cleaning, etc. for our Halloween party on Saturday.
• We FINALLY got our wedding picture order back. Now on to the sorting of millions of proofs!!
• Just sat through a half-day inservice. Somewhat interesting but I was just not in the mood to sit through such a thing today...I kept trying to hide my yawns. Just had another one, it must be residual effects of the inservice.
• D comes back on Friday. I made him promise that he'd help clean up before the party.
