I am not dead, have not quit blogging, and James did not banish me.
I know I am not the prolific blogger that I once was and that I do disappear from time time, but I am pretty sure my recent absence is one of my longest.
Despite the fact that this is supposed to be the slowest time of the academic year, it has been anything but (long story, or set of stories in fact).
I just thought it was worth a quick note.
