I’ve been back from Chile for a week, presented at one conference on Native American special education, in New Mexico, was home two days and then got on a flight to Grand Forks, North Dakota. On my flight from Los Angeles I opened an email saying our paper had been accepted for the National Indian Education conference in Connecticut in two weeks.

When I woke up in St. Michael, North Dakota the next day it was already afternoon in Santiago, so I tried to get as many emails and phone calls as possible done to organize the visits Daniel will be making to schools in Tome. I downloaded Making Camp Bilingual over the god awful slow in flight WiFi and tested it. I uploaded bugs I’d find in the iPhone version of Aztech: The Story Begins which, hopefully, will be available for iPhone by early next week.

I also wrote a paper on biostatistics for a software conference early next year and finished that on the plane, too. Friday, I finished several pages on solving multi-step word problems, as well as edited a bunch of sound files for Siglo de Cambio, released in beta this week, in Spanish (woo hoo!).

That was just this week. There was a lot more, too. Meetings on marketing , development . Blog posts. I recorded a podcast and answered a seemingly infinite stream of emails.

I often ask myself why…
