Graduate school and irony

Hey, guys…looks like this graduate school thing is going to be a bit longer than I thought. Took the GREs…gonna take them again. Need to apply for graduate schools, need to take care of some legal issues, and of course wrap up all of my loose ends here in Iowa.

Back in a bit…but for now, bugs in the news!

Yeah…sorry I haven’t kept up with the bug-blogging as of late. Had a few things going on in my life…but I dare not turn this into a ‘bitch-about-my-life’ blog. There are far too many of those and quite frankly, my strifes aren’t that interesting.

Well, guys…it’s been fun but I’ve got to take a two week vacation

more music charts

No fear, though…I still have a few canned posts I think you’ll find [...]

I don’t know if you guys have been reading my blogroll…

…but if you haven’t, head over to Bug Girl’s blog and donate to the UN nothing but nets campaign.

You can read more about it in Bug Girl’s [...]
