joining the august break

I've been a busy bee and I'll probably get a whole lot busier with fall semester starting up next week (eep!). Life has been throwing obstacle after obstacle my way and the blog has taken a backseat, so this will be a great way for me to carry on with posts through August. I swear one day I'll have enough time to really get this thing off its feet. But for now, August Break 2011, here goes!
