My beta fish passed away yesterday. We put him in the creek at a nearby park. He had been with me for almost a year, so I was sad to find him floating near his colorful castle with some kind of fungus on him. Sigh…

I’m going to the Melbourne Comedy Festival tonight. I’m catching up with a gal pal of mine and we’re gearing up for laughter and tears (of the good kind!). :)

I recently updated Indopedia. Please check it out at http://editthis.info/indopedia/Main_Page .

I just saw the film “Atonement.” It was beautifully depressing.

In the news… “U-M grad instructors strike:” http://blog.mlive.com/annarbornews/2008/03/instructor_walkout_stalls_cons.html Graduate students from my department are quite active with the union.
