East Coast in the House!

Yeah, or rather, I'm in a house on the east coast. My mother's house, to be exact. I got in a bit early last night and was picked up at the airport by my bro and mom. Bro M. and I went out to Kildaires for a few hours, and met up with sister E. on her way back from Syracuse. I realized that I haven't seen her since Christmas, which is way too long. I haven't seen my brother since I went out to LA in March, either. This is a disturbing trend in my life that I have to try to reverse. Family and friends are important, and it's a shame when money and a busy schedule can keep you from seeing people who you care about. It's an unfortunate excuse that I don't want to fall back on any more.

In other news, my research is being picked up by a bunch of news outlets this week and next. Here's the current list:
