Look At Me Still Talking When There’s Science To Do

In Grand Rapids… thinking about Barrow (among other things)

Miss Liebig, you know how to do math?!?

Someone who knows both my local mailing address and the fact that I am interested in arctic ecology must have been behind the package I found in my mailbox. It contained one book and no identifying information.  The return address is that of the book’s author.

I have my suspicions! Thank you very much, and I am excited to have reading material delivered to me on the eve of my release from academic bondage. Last day tomorrow!

NOW YOU HAVE THE LATEST IN STAMP FASHION

All done. Only 2 a.m.! Not too bad (for me). My mom helped. She was a pretty good helper.

We made sure to remember:

  • wool socks
  • waterproof rain suit
  • “The Best of Christopher Walken on SNL” DVD
  • cancer hat
  • pocket knife
  • notes on writing in elvish (in case I need a refresher)
  • 11 elastic hair bands
  • about eighty-eight crayons

I think that should do it. I also have a nice little mail kit, suitable for sending fashionable pieces of post. The Post Office Woman, at stop number three of five last-minute errands, was very pleased to be able to outfit me so trendily. And friendily… was she ever friendly. If anyone is inclined to reach me by mail, the addresses are available here.

Word on the street is that I’m packing lighter than at least one of my co-workers, and I bet Bob doesn’t even have thirteen reading choices with him! However, I’m not even bringing a real bra, so that saved some space.

I made up all the numbers in this post.
