I’m prepping to get back to the office on Monday, and I am in the process of studying statistics in order to get ready for my next set of classes.  Between that, the paper I am supposed to be reading and the coalescent theory textbook that I am working my way through I feel like there is a giant cliff face of learning in front of me.  At least that is how I was feeling yesterday, today I got into my second stats lecture and it was on probability and that is something that I understand and can work with. So I am feeling like I can do this at the moment and that is making me feel good.
