Well, it is July 15 and I must admit, the blog has gotten pushed to the back burner frequently over the last month and a half. But that's not because I don't love it! I do and I will be spending a great deal of time with it in the next few weeks.

My excuses for this most recent break include moving (we are finally in the new apartment!), a trip to Aveyron in the south of France, where I hiked, ate, and drank to my heart's content in a town of 350 people, and trying to decipher my acceptance letters from various universities to figure out which program I want to pursue next year. Will it be political communication? Will it be education research? Or multimedia design? We shall see. Fortunately, I have many options (for once!). Now I just have to figure out which path will be best for me. In any case, lots and lots of change going on here on Avenue Parmentier.

But first, I have to go to the pool and try to shed the vacation bloat. Damn munchies!
