I am finally writing a post from my new house.  My furniture is not here yet but I did have the foresight to take care of important things like making sure cable internet was h00x0r3d up.  I had to hang out with the city inspectors for a while to get occupancy for this weekend but here I am.  Over the next week I will be setting up my lab.  One's environment has a large effect on the work one does and general effectiveness and frame of mind.  I hope to be able to leverage this to produce a couple of cool research projects this year.
