		<description>Today's my first day--reading everyone else's blogs has made me feel like our first day back was never going to happen. Of course, we'll be teaching up to Christmas Eve (not quite!).  Hi Michelle!</description>

		<description>The start here in Fargo has certainly be good.  If you get a chance to say hello to your new colleague Bill in chemistry, please do.  If he doesn't recognize anyone from North Dakota, just mention Andrew Johnston.  I'm the other Dr. Drew.</description>

		<description>Thanks. :)  I fear that I don't always seem approachable, so it makes me very happy. Glad all is going well for you.</description>

		<description>I'm glad to hear from you again, Chel. I kinda stopped reading after the password thing, but I totally understand your reasons for doing it -- in fact, I'm feeling a little worried myself about how some of my writing might get seen, given where I'm at. I think it's awesome that your students follow you and feel comfortable enough to ask -- and I'm not at all surprised.</description>

		<description>I'm also experiencing the first days, and mine have gone well as well, which means that (teaching in a community college), I don't have any red flags thus far. 

Probably a quarter of my students followed me back to my office today because they needed something. I'm glad to be there for them.  I am SO happy that that many students felt comfortable enough to ask.

It always feels good to start again.</description>
