Delays
I haven't forgotten this blog.
These past few weeks have been incredibly busy. I had a huge paper due Tuesday for Microbiology and a math assignment due this morning; tomorrow a Microbiology project is due (identification of two unknown bacteria), and Friday is my second major math test (only one more to go). Mr. Man and I did manage to spend about an hour and a half Sunday at a local cemetery, putting iris' on the grave of random veterans (we really like it when we come across a WWI vet's grave).
I have been writing blogs in between all this, however; I have two currently in work. People who don't write blogs may not realise it, but they can take a lot of time. Many of the blogs I write take days, in fact. I decide on a topic, ruminate on it, (to decide on the approach), research it, write, and then let it gel for at least a few hours. Later I revisit, revise, re-read, verify data and post. Most entries I post take about 5-7 hours in total to generate, and I have many I've started and never posted, either because I wasn't happy with them, or I realised that the topic felt outdated to me.
The long and the short of it is that I am worried about things, worried about the path we're on, but school (primarily), has been so pressing I've had little time for anything else.
I will return soon.
