Coffee heat rising

Busy day today

Won’t be getting much blogging done today. I have to be at the campus by 2:00 (meaning I have to leave here by 1:00) for a memorial service for the Grand Old Man of the history department, who passed a month ago under difficult circumstances. Quite some time ago, before I realized I would be hosting the Carnival of Personal Finance on Monday, I also promised to have dinner with an out-of-state colleague who spent the fall semester as interim director of a program in that department, she having come back to town for the service. So that will keep me in lovely downtown Tempe all afternoon and into the night.

It also hugely truncates the time available to work on the carnival and do all the weekend chores. So, if I don’t have much to say today and tomorrow, don’t go away. It’s not that I’ve forgotten you.
