Hey, a short post!

Apparently infrequent blogging = really long posts for this particular blogger. And it's probably more than apparent, as well, that I can think of little else than the difficult transition my family is making right now.

I'm hoping that once we really and truly decide where we'll be living and which one of us gets the full-time academic gig, this blog will spring to a different kind of life. Needless to say (perhaps), we're strongly veering toward staying here in the northeast; I just haven't got up the courage yet to quit my job. Since I basically have until July to tell them, I might be living with this vague and utterly distracting dread for some time. Anyway, I mainly wanted to thank you for bearing with me.
