Another interesting day — Sue and Amy did some great presentations.  It is always great to see the unique levels of creativity and the wonderful projects produced by a group such as this.  I’m sitting in front of the monitor — thinking of all the things to do, yet this evening, in order to satisfy [...]

Well, I finished another tutorial, but I feel like everything I am learning this week is just going in one ear and out the other.  I am trying to retain all this info, but my brain is struggling.  I used to think I was fairly smart, but today I was irritated and confused and exhausted.  [...]
