I made the 5.5 hour drive to Atlanta yesterday with a friend.  Weather's beautiful here - clear skies & 75 degrees.  I decided to start of the weekend with a pampering facial.  I've been trying to be good to myself in these very stressful times.  I had dinner at my dream restaurant - an Indian restaurant that has live blues! 

Today, I'm hanging out at a Panera restaurant for a good meal and free wifi.  It's right next door to a starbucks, but I imagine that all of the students and professionals who would normally do their work over a cup of coffee at starbucks are here for the free internet.  Way to go, Panera!

In other news, my research has hit a new high today.   My models are working really well and I think we're on to something.  When I say "my" models, I mean the lab group's models of my data.  Anyway, it's a good thing!
