I can't believe it has been almost eight months since my last post. As I mentioned in November, life was crazy, and the spring semester wasn't much better. However, I have a job waiting for me in the Midwest and I'm inching closer to finishing my dissertation (I am taking a break from editing to post this - don't tell my adviser :).
While I probably won't be posting again for a while, I am not planning on abandoning this blog. For now, take care and have a lovely summer!
