Where in the world...

In case you're wondering why I haven't been posting... the past month has been rather hectic with two weeklong trips and a relatively sudden (though happy and exciting!) job change, so my reading/thinking/blogging time has been rather limited. That said I'm back in town and starting to settle into a new routine so just be a patient a short while longer! Also, it seems like the readership of this blog is expanding significantly beyond people I know in real life, and I'd love to hear from you, so please post! If you have a related site or blog I'll be happy to link to it if you'll return the favor. A bientot!
