Ok, so it's been a while......

I got a bit blogged out during the Learning 2.0 program last summer, and I've never been a particularly prolific (or consistent) blogger in the first place, so I have been on quite the hiatus. Apologies to the person (if there is one) who may actually be following my blog.

Lots of life changes since my last "Thing #23" post!

My husband took a job at the University of Michigan in June, and I was incredibly fortunate to follow him to Ann Arbor in October. Not only did I get a job, I got my own personal dream job! That's right, I'm now working in the Taubman Medical Library at U of M as a Liaison Services Librarian. Outside of the preponderance of maize and blue (I'll always be a Spartan at heart......), things couldn't be better.

Of course, the 2.0 stuff (starting to hate that term with the passion of the Annoyed Librarian) is still keeping me very busy here in A2. I'm getting more and more enamored of Google and its various applications, and have started exploring the plethora of 3rd party PubMed tools in hopes of convincing our medical students, faculty, and researchers that Google itself is not really an appropriate source of medical information (unless you really know what you're doing).

I hope to begin posting more regularly, since we spent a good part of our 2.0 subcontract meeting this morning talking about what bad bloggers we all are. Future topics to look forward to: attempting to put a railing up on our deck, adventures in fence installation, more rants from the library, and the occasional State of the Townsend Union address (depending on how mad/happy/upset I am with Brian at the moment).
