I'm managing better today. I called my grandmother and will be seeing her this coming Sunday for lunch. I'm looking forward to telling her all about the program at Syracuse and my visit to the campus.
I got my history mid-term, due today, done and uploaded. The next big things I have to think about this semester are my land use planning term project and my poster for the AAG (Association of American Geographers) conference in two weeks.
But my poster for the CSAS (Central States Anthropological Society) this weekend is done! In fact, I tracked down instructions for accessing my university webspace, so you can download it from here if you're interested:

I'm leaving Thursday at 5:30 in the morning for the drive to Minneapolis. The conference runs through Saturday evening, so I should be home lat that day. I need to try to pack what I need to work on things while I'm there. Probably a lit review for my land use project.
I was originally going to compare a 1925 Kenosha city plan with a similar 1935 document, and maybe the current comprehensive plan too, but I changed my mind for a few reasons. Instead, I'm going to write about current thoughts on bicycle infrastructure in urban planning. I know there's a crapload of literature on that topic already 'cause I've read a little of it, and I can even do a case-study of Kenosha using the city's bike development plan from 2006, which I have a copy of here.
Lastly, I'm excited because a clothing order for Miriam and myself that we made via a Chinese reseller has arrived at her place and I'm looking forward to trying on a neat shirt that arrived for me next time I can see her!
So that's where my brain's at. How are you?
