I’m off to crawl into my cozy little Brooklyn bed again shortly, but I just wanted to note that I’m back again, thanks to my ever-patient folks. After an excellent breakfast with my big brother, we stopped at Bowl & Board in Cambridge to pick me up some kick-ass bookshelves and kitchen miscellany, then piled into my Dad’s truck and headed here.

A few hours later and I’ve got a less-imposing heap of books stacked on top of my desk (down to one layer of O’Reilly books!), a really fantastic set of shelves holding the rest, and an urgent need to go straight to bed. Funny what going to bed at 9pm every night for a week will do to you (not to mention my lingering holiday cold).

I apologize for the lack of updates (and lack of mail reading) this past week, but now that I’m back things should be more or less normal, or as normal as they ever are.
