I've been told that a geek would have realized his computer wasn't connecting to the internet because his ethernet cable was plugged into the wrong port. But I'm trying!
This has been the dreariest autumn since I've been in Fairbanks. It's rained almost every day, and today the rain is slowly turning into big, fat snowflakes. I hope it sticks! It must be time to wax the skis and make sure they're ready to go once winter hits.
On Monday good friends and colleagues of mine moved back to Switzerland. They've known they were leaving for about a year, but its amazing how fast that time passed. Probably the best part of being in the academic world is that you get to meet a lot of great people from around the world. The worst part being that they all leave at some point.
In other news, a paper I submitted to the Journal of Geophysical Research - Earth Surfaces has been conditionally accepted. This means I need to make some major revisions to the paper within the next month, and if the revisions please the scientific editor (the person who ultimately decides whether or not to publish a paper), then we should be seeing my first manuscript in print sometime next year.
