I don't come home for the summer!
Over the last week it seems that people are finally starting to clue in that the grad student life is one of school year round. The summer is research time by and large, so at least it's a change of pace from attending or teaching classes (although no TAing means little money to spare). Call it summer number 4 in school, or perhaps number 5 if you'd classify my 2003 summer at TRIUMF in the same category.
