Spring Fever/Madness

It's getting to be spring around here. Most of our snow has melted off, and I've even been wearing short sleeves over the past week or so. I love winter, but do have to admit that there is something exciting about spring, when life seems to wake up and perk up once again.

But perhaps some of you thought that I had gone into a hole for hibernation. After all, it's been quite a while since I last blogged here! And since I know you all were dying to hear from me, my wife thought it would be good for me to get some words up on here.

Actually, part of the reason I haven't been so active here is because I've created a blog related to my work, and I strive to create a new entry on there six days a week. (If you would like to check out that blog, look me up on facebook for the link, or email me and I'll get it to you.) It's been a fun adventure, and I am really liking the discipline it takes to put a few paragraphs down each day.

It's also been a time where I have been finishing up some of my doctoral work. I took two classes in January, and I typically have 10 weeks to get my papers done. So I've been working on those so that I can get them to my professors before the deadline.

In addition, I will be taking another class this summer, and have begun my reading assignments for them. That also takes up a bit of additional time.

So there is my life in a nutshell. Of course, my favorite thing continues to be spending time with my wife, so she is in line for the lion's share of my time. You can almost be sure that, anytime I haven't blogged for a while, she or some of these other things have been taking up my time.

It's good to be back. I promise I won't go so long between entries if at all possible!
