R.I.P.

Hey! I'm finally back home! The girl with the ruby slippers said it best. There really is no place like home sweet home. It's like taking one giant exhale. I can finally hang up the old thinking cap and give the old noggin a well-deserved rest.

I just wanted to give a grand farewell to the blog because if it's not already dead, it's soon going to be when everyone goes home (Sorry Rach and Melvin!). I'll try to keep checking and updating but I make no promises. Big plans this summer! I'm going to Shanghai in July to take Mandarin. I figured I might as well try to prepare a mode of communication when the US inevitably crumbles, dragging the EU down with it while India tries and fails to fill the vacuum only to be annexed when China takes over the world. Plus, it's a good excuse to go to the Expo! Very exciting!

So now I have a long-awaited date with my huge stack of books. I've been buying books all year and never had a chance to just sit down and devour them all. We need to spend some quality time together or this relationship just isn't going to last.

We need to get together this summer before everyone disappears on their busy summer adventures. Just putting it out there. If you don't like it, just send it right back and we can discuss issues like the housing bubble. No pressure.
