Yeah, so I don't think I've written for almost 2 years...(guilt).  Obviously lots of stuff has happened since then, and maybe this summer I'll have the time to write.  I suppose part of the reason is that I moved to a paper  journal for a while to have more private entries, but I wouldn't mind doing a few general, philosophical entries here.
