I’ve been mostly absent from the internets lately (with the exception of my very favorite procrastination method, Twitter), but I have 250 pages of a really good excuse. I’ll be defending my doctoral dissertation on 29 November in San Diego. It’s open to the public, so anyone in the area is invited to come on by! Unfortunately due to logistical constraints I will not be live-streaming or filming the defense, but maybe someone in the audience will do some tweeting.

But……damnit! Where can we read this? Publish on the webz please! Inquiring minds who love the Ocean want to know.
