Well, I'm back from Alaska but, after a 25-hour stopover home in Berkeley, I flew down for a wedding in Los Angeles, and I'm sticking around until Thursday.

The trip was fantastic. I have 200 megs of photos to sift through, and I'll put together a microsite both about the trip and about my experience with the cruise line (Celebrity Curises) that I'll be linking to off of epinions. I'll have reviews of the cruise line, and ancillary items like the eight TalkAbout walkie-talkies our group used to keep in touch on the cruise ship and at destinations, and my Nikon CoolPix, which I've finally learned to like, through the use of high-capacity rechargable batteries.

Anyhow, that's all for the moment, except to say that it suddenly hit me that I need to be thinking about grad school now, and I should be boning up on the GRE right now. Everything happens at once!

Thanks for hanging out. As always, there's more to come.
