Returning soon

Hi friends.  I have been absent from this blog but I promise to return soon.  I am busy working on my massive paper every second I get.  This has been my mode of working for the last week or so:

Big dorky headphones on.  Classical music playing.  Tons of papers in my hands.  Frantically editing.

I have lots of updates and stories and photos to share.  Promise to be back after I send this draft in on Friday.  In the meantime, I hope you are having a great week :)
