Other achievements of note.
Started school and I am currently in week 2. Already I feel several weeks behind though with at least 3-4 papers to read a day. Plus labs to prepare for and grade so needless to say I have been busy. Other than that I started reading the second prequel Dune trilogy and I am about half way through that now. I don't think anything else of note really has happened. So here is to a productive month.
