Readers' choice!

Bullock and I are going away for the weekend for a wedding-related shindig (not actually the wedding itself, since that's in New Zealand), and when I get back I intend to blog something substantive. The question is -- what?

Which would you rather read about: whether or not my students' research papers from the spring were a success and how/why I taught the research process in an undergrad class? What I'm planning on doing in my graduate research methods class this fall?
A post-conference meditation on what it means to finally feel "grown up" in the profession? A post-conference meditation on the mortality of my mentors? Or my fears about looking like a fool and not knowing what I'm doing on my upcoming research trip to the UK?

Or would you rather read something breezy and summer-light -- for instance, my newest dog breed obsession? Or how Bullock has transformed his look into a NASA scientist ca. 1975 and why I dig it? Or why I like "The Starter Wife" and have given up on "Hex"? Or how I may break down and get an all-regions DVD player to watch the second seaons of "Life on Mars," now that it's out on DVD in the UK? (Uh, I guess that's it for that last category!)

All of the above, pls. (or do I need to get a life?)

I'm enjoying "Starter Wife" also; I think it's something about a miniseries that I'm finding attractive.

Have a good wedding-y weekend!

I want to hear about what you wear while you blog at various times during the day and why!

All of it! Seconded!

Mortality grabs me.

All of it - but I especially want to hear about Bullock becoming the 70s NASA scientist...

I'm working on changing up my own research methods class, so that's what I'd like to hear about!

(Or could I talk you into sharing a syllabus?)

Ooh, mortality and / or undergrad research, please!

All of it! But I'm especially interested in your research papers (as I am now grading --- or not grading, actually --- things).

But dog breeds also sound good --- could you have a post on research papers on dog breeds?

Ooh, all of it, esp. the student research papers! Plus, I'm so glad I'm not the only one with the shameful "Starter Wife" secret :)
