Oh What Kind of Summer Has it Been?

I never let school get in the way of my education -- Mark Twain

Marcia emailed out a thank you note, thanking me for my work this summer as an intern at the Mozilla Foundation. It's hard to believe that my internship is over; it feels as if the odyssey has just begun. Thank you to everyone, Asa, Marcia, Jay, Coop, Tracy, Rafael, Choffman, Cbeard, Mitchell, Chase, Myk, Bkap, Polvi, Jesse, and everyone else I'm forgetting, for an amazing summer. Between finally building and deploying Litmus, having unfettered access to the snack temple, and coming in each morning to hear a new rant of the day from Asa (that would make a great podcast, "Asa's Rant of the Day), it's been a blast.

I don't plan to go away by any means. Unfortunately, state law, the wishes of my parents, and society's love for framed embossed sheets of paper with fancy looking writing conspire to take up much of my day-to-day time, especially between now and January. I hope to contribute as much as possible in the coming months, especially through continued development and management of the Litmus project. And of course, there's always next summer...

So thanks to all for the fish (or in my case, the white yogurt covered pretzels and bottles of Pellegrino). It has been a pleasure working with everyone for the summer, and here's to more to come.

Update: After getting into a long, protracted fight with the school registrar, this whole finishing school thing is starting to sound a lot less fun. Who knows. Maybe she'll get fed up with me and take me out of all my classes. ;-)
