Adventures in Being Really Busy

This month is jam-packed with stuff to do. I'm going on three major trips: the first is to a conference in Atlanta, the second is to Laura's dissertation defense celebratory extravaganza, and the third is to a conference planning meeting in Austin, Texas. Add to that the usual responsibilities at work, plus some new ones -- installing new software in a new way on our supercomputers, helping the folks on my new project parallelize their code with OpenMP (which I've used once, but really need to learn more about if I'm going to be of any help) -- and my plate is full. Hopefully I will find some time in there to enjoy my family and to write some interesting blog posts!
