yeah, whatever

well, we won and we're going to the state tournament. I am pretty excited about it although I lost my match in three sets: 3-6 7-5 4-6. it's ok though I guess because we won as a team 5-2. the state tournament is not next week, but the week after that one. I will post the specifics of when we play once I find them out, just in case anyone is interested in attending. peace.

tennis tales

today I played in the team semifinal match for regions. we won 7-0 against st thomas, I won 6-2, 6-4. tomorrow we play southwest in the finals at 4 at nicollet tennis center. the winner of the match will go to the state tournament. the loser goes home. we already beat southwest 6-1 earlier in the season, but it could go either way. I will update the blog tomorrow sometime after the match. peace.

Photos from New York

Hello,
Here are a few highlights from the NY trip, straight from my parents' digital camera. The first is on a boat trip in the Hudson--look closely and you can see the Statue of Liberty. The second is a glamour shot of NY, and the third is Mae and I after her graduation.

The cicadas are taking over Bloomington at the moment--the particular species out this year emerges only every 17 years, and has a couple of months to molt, find a mate and die. Similarly, my lab will be moving from the basement (where I've spend my grad school existence except when in the greenhouse or field) to a new lab on the first floor with windows next month.

Hope everyone's doing well and enjoying the summer!
