I'm baaacck!

After a few days away from the blogosphere I almost wondered if I should return. Of course, I couldn't let my faithful readers down, so here I am. It was a rather eventful few days, culminating in the wedding of my little sister (of which I'm still in denial, both of her not being so little anymore, and of her getting married). Anyways, the science blogging (or lack thereof) will now commence.
