I promise, I didn't fall off the edge of the earth . . . I did make it back in one piece. It's just been busy 'round here since I wrote last. First of all, I don't have internet access at the apartment where I'm staying for the summer, so it's not quite as convenient to write at all hours of the night anymore. Second, vacation is over, and I'm back to working fulltime again. I'm doing research for my school's Chemistry Department this summer; it's in conjunction with my senior thesis: "The Enantioseparation of Charged and Neutral Chiral Drugs by Capillary Electrophoresis using Sulfated-beta-Cyclodextrins." It's starting off well, I think. Good times.

By the way, last week I started a 20-chapter-a-day diet for my quiettimes. I'm putting it in public writing to keep me accountable ;) I'm reading the Bible in chronological order, and it should put me at finishing in the middle of August or so. If you run into me or talk to me, feel free to ask me how it's going . . . to make sure I don't slack ;)

Anyway, I'm really hungry and want to go home, so I'm going to keep this one short, but just wanted to let you know why the rate-of-posting is a little slower since leaving India.

Coming soon, hopefully: pictures from Mandi and my stop at the Taj Mahal!

Hope y'all are soakin' up some summer sun :)
