All good things come to an end

January 3, 2016 By Pete Trumbore

keep-calm-winter-break-is-overI took more time away from the blog than I had intended, but in retrospect I’m feeling pretty OK about that. After all, other stuff had to get done.

  • Like celebrating the holidays with family and friends.
  • Like playing music. A lot of music.
  • Like rejoicing that the new installment of Star Wars didn’t suck.
  • Like working on overdue revisions to a journal article.
  • Like avoiding prepping for the start of classes in two days.
  • But mostly the first two.

And I don’t seem to have missed much, not really.

  • The presidential races is still a clown show.
  • White cops are still being exonerated for killing unarmed black kids.
  • Gun laws are still being weakened.
  • Right-wing nut jobs are brandishing arms and threatening violence in the name of “liberty”.
  • The freakishly warm weather either is or is not related to climate change depending mostly on your politics rather than science.
  • War and terrorism continue apace.

In short, 2016 looks a lot like 2015. Be that as it may, my break is ending. Cue John Wick.
