Counting the days before the semester ends. :D

Planetarium show at the Academy was spectacular followed w/ a dungeoness crab dinner and ended the night watching John Woo's RED CLIFF. :)

Taking the day off ... visiting the California Academy of Sciences and SFMOMA.

Finally found time to revise one of my articles this afternoon -- a full 3 hours. :D

So Bad ...

I'm such a bad blogger these past few months which could be a good thing since the less time I spend here musing on random things is more time for something productive like publishing or writing, for instance.

But I've been reduced to a form of micro-blogging via Twitter and Facebook, occasionally chiming in on some point from another poster, but nothing lengthy or substantive.

Little snippets here and there, still random thoughts, stream of consciousness posts, and "SQUIRREL!" (if you liked Pixar's movie UP).

I cannot wait until the semester is over.

More than half of my students failed their assignments ... either they did not understand it, or they ignored the instructions ... Grrrrrr.

It must be near the end of the semester because I felt that all my energy drained away during my lecture today.

Driving across the Bay Bridge after it reopened was the most enjoyable trip that I've had in a long time. The traffic was the lightest ever!
