The bad news is, it has been a lot of work and has kept me busy. In those first few weeks, I ate, slept, went to work, and did math. It felt like I was starting to become a walking calculator, but one with a few broken buttons!

| I'm old enough to remember calculators that actually looked like this. Now-a-days they're either scientific-dealies (like my calculator I had to buy back when I thought I could become a Pharmacist - Ha!), or they are all on people's cell phones. Do they even make regular pocket calculators anymore? / Source: public.merlin.swgfl.org.uk |
The worse news is (and you probably guessed it already, seeing the lack of updates for awhile), I'm going to have to put/keep this blog back in the freezer for awhile. Maybe the semester will just get easier and life will return to semi-normal, but I refuse to get lax and somehow join the legion of students at Weber State who end up taking the course two or more times. Math 1010, according to numerous sources I've spoken to, is the most failed class on campus. It's also a money-making scheme too, according to some people, but since I don't have time to do good investigative journalism on the topic, I'll have to leave that in the "strong rumor" pile for now.
Anyway, I do have posts sitting almost complete in the cue, and if I have time (strong "if") I might still publish every now and then. But don't expect anything near as regular as I was doing before the Christmas holiday break. At least not until until summer break.
And as always, thanks for your patronage.
