It's been awhile since I've been able to blog. I figured I ought to catch you all up.

• The last few weeks of the semester were really hard for me. I'm happily taking a week off my studies before I start preparing for my two-week intensive in the middle of June.
• My one friend in Kansas City (okay, okay, I might have two) graduated from seminary on Sunday. I'm not sure how I feel about this. It's kind of a bummer. However, Mr. Chatty McShutupperson also graduated. He will not be in any more of my classes. This is perhaps the best thing to happen to me since I started seminary.
• Month 13 has been, by far, the most difficult so far in Alliclaus' life. I think she must be cutting molars, but we've had a tremendous sleep regression and she hates her crib. She's really into her tantrums right now, so I spend all day trying not to laugh about them in front of her.
• BlogHer! Andiclaus and I are making a long weekend of it to hang out with Sarah and Joshiclaus. Saturday night, we're going to see Wicked. Sarah and I have already seen it, but it will be a first for the boys. Alliclaus might also be doing an overnighter with Jenny that night. We shall see.
• Between now and then, we will be having a house guest for almost three weeks and I'll be making a long weekend trip back to San Diego for Memo's baby shower. I'm not sure exactly how I'm going to get all my intensive class work done, but I'm sure it will probably involve a similar weeks-long unscheduled hiatus from blogging.

I've missed you guys. I started to try to get through my Google Reader, but I gave up. So I'm starting fresh and hope that you'll let me know if something huge happened in the last two weeks or so.
