quick update
Drove from New York to Minnesota on Sunday/Monday, which was TONS OF FUN. Sunday I had to stop early in Ohio because blinding snowstorm. Monday I drove on snowed-in turnpikes most of the day, then into ridiculous cold+wind once the roads were clear. Best traffic I've ever dealt with in Chicago, though.
Anyway, I am back and working again, which is sad in the short term (I already miss family and sleeping for nine hours a day), but in the long term this is good. Classes don't start for another week and a half, but in the meantime I have coaching and research responsibilities, and I'm studying for my first prelim exam, bluh. On Friday I'm driving with a bus full of teenagers to Indiana for a huge high school competition, which is freaking me out a little. Hopefully it will be chill - I'm an anxious competitor, but I usually do pretty well with strip-coaching.
How is everyone else handling the new year?
